Mythical Characters No 6 Eostre

Eostre, or Ostara, is a goddess in Germanic mythology who is believed to be the namesake of the festival Ostara and possibly the Christian holiday Easter. She's associated with the dawn and the coming of spring. Depictions of Eostre are scarce and largely based on conjecture since there are few historical references to her. The primary source that mentions her is the work of the Venerable Bede, an 8th-century English monk who suggested that the month Eosturmonath (April) was named after a goddess of spring and fertility.
