Rigani (Rigana) is a Celtic goddess worshipped in Gaul. Her name translates to “queen,” a sign of her importance and the regard in which she was held.

It is also possible that “Rigani” is a title rather than a name; the translation of the inscription is uncertain and could be interpreted either as “I have offered this to Rigani and Rosmerta” or as “I have offered this to Rigani (Queen) Rosmerta.”
