Taranis (Tanarus, Taranucno, Taranuo, Taraino and Tuireann) - Celtic Mythology – Taranis was the god of thunder in Celtic Mythology. Many representations of a bearded god with a thunderbolt in one hand and a wheel in the other have been recovered from Gaul. The wheel, more specifically the chariot wheel with eight spokes, was an important symbol in historical Celtic polytheism, apparently associated with a specific god, known as the wheel-god, identified as the sky-sun- or thunder-god, whose name is attested as Taranis by Lucan.
