Sucellus
The god of spring, called Sucellus, was also known as the king of the gods. He was especially important to people because they relied on plants and trees for their food supply. Sucellus carried a large hammer with which he hit the earth; waking up the vegetation and making it spring to life. This hammer may also be a symbol of the god’s authority, like a king’s scepter.
