Sulis to various Indo-European words for "sun" (cf. Homeric Greek ηέλιος, Sanskrit "sūryah" "sun", from Proto-Indo-European "*suhlio-"). Sulis was the local goddess of the thermal springs that still feed the spa baths at Bath, which the Romans called "Aquae Sulis" ("the waters of Sulis"). Her name primarily appears on inscriptions discovered at Bath, with only a single instance outside of Britain at Alzey, Germany. This is not surprising, as Celtic deities often preserved their archaic localisation. They remained to the end associated with a specific place, often a cleft in the earth, a spring, pool or well. The Greeks referred to
Aquae Sulis cuamiun ai" "The affixed – Deuina, Deieda, Andagin, (and) Uindiorix – I have bound" An alternative translation based on a much better knowledge of the Celtic languages is the following: "May I, Windiorix for/at Cuamena defeat (alt. "summon to justice") the worthless woman, oh divine Deieda." (Alt. "Divine Deiada, may I, Windiorix, bring to justice/defeat (in court) the woman at Cuamena".) This is a superior, though still uncertain, translation in that it takes into account the nominal cases of the nouns: "Windiorix" (alt. "Windorix") - nominative masculine (subject), lit. "fair-headed" ("windo") "king" ("rix"); "Dewina Deieda" - nominative/vocative feminine "divine Deieda"
