Anu was a Mother-Goddess associated with fertility and sometimes considered to be the ancestor of all the Gods (Tuatha de Danann). Anu was also the patroness of springs and fountains, accounting for the numerous St. Anne's Wells throughout Britain today. Some believe that Anu is another name for the goddess Danu, but there are others that present them as two different but similar women.
