Baduhenna In Germanic paganism, Baduhenna is a goddess. Baduhennna is solely attested by Tacitus's ''Annals'' where Tacitus records that a grove in ancient Frisia was dedicated to her, and that near this grove 900 Roman soldiers were killed in 28 CE. Scholars have analyzed the name of the goddess and linked the figure to the Germanic Matres and Matronae. ==Etymology== The first element of the goddess's name, ''Badu-'', may be cognate to Proto-Germanic '' *badwa-'' meaning "battle." The second portion of the name ''-henna'' appears as ''-henae'' in the names of matrons, Germanic goddesses widely attested from the 1st to 5th century CE on votive stones and votive altars. Rudolf Simek states that the goddess's name etymology implies that the goddess is associated with war, and Simek points out that sacred groves are commonly associated with the Germanic peoples.〔Simek (2007:26).〕
