Andate (Or Andraste)

in British mythology, was a goddess of victory whom the ancient Britons are said to have worshipped. In the country of the Trinobantes (County of Essex) a large temple was built of unhewn trees for her worship, surrounded by spacious woods. The prisoners of war were taken there and slain.
