Hi.
I have been searching the archives, and the Internet, for the names of
Gothic deities. I have the impression that there are no original sources
for these, only reconstructions. Am I right in this?

By original sources I mean inscriptions in a Gothic context (on artifacts
etc.) or in Late Antique text. That excludes Jordanes' "Mars" etc., as I
am interested in the names more than the functions.

Halstein.
