Dis Pater, Dispater, Dis. In Roman mythology, the god of the underworld and the dead, identified with Pluto (Gk. Hades), but often referred to as though having a separate personality. Julius
Caesar in
The Gallic Wars (1st cent. BC) calls Dis the transcendent god among the Celts, one of the six in their ‘pantheon’, and asserts that all the Celts claimed him as their ultimate ancestor. Through
interpretatio romana (see
GAUL), we now ascribe the Roman name Dis Pater to the Gaulish deity, whose native name is unknown, just as we do with Gaulish
Mercury or
Mars. Several modern commentators have seen links between Dis Pater and nameable Celtic figures, especially
Donn (1), the god of the dead. Others cited include
Bile;
Cernunnos; the
Dagda; and
Taranis.
