Below is a list of some of the other notable Ancient Greek deities. Now, it is worth noting that the Greek mythos is huge; giants, titans, monsters, nymphs, heroes...the list goes on. On top of that, the Greeks personified everything; you have Caerus, the 'God' or 'Spirit' of opportunity, Amechania who was the 'Goddess' of 'Spirt' of helplessness, Moros who was the 'God' or 'Spirit' of doom....and again, the list goes on. If I were to pull everything together, it would be hundreds of entries!
Also note that I have created a separate section for Greek water deities, as again there were so many I felt that they deserved their own section (although I have included a couple in this list).
So, below is just a small selection from that very large pool.

Artio is a Celtic bear Goddess, and although she has been described as one of the 'lesser' Celtic deities, I feel as though I have seen her popularity rise in recent years. Goddessess associated with bears can be found across the world; in ancient Rome, Artemis was associated with bears, Hungary has the Goddess Ildiko, and in Finland the Goddess Mielikki is linked with bears (and is a deity I have personally worked with before).
Evidence of Artio has mostly been found in Switzerland, believed to be through the Helvetii, a Celtic tribe who migrated to Switzerland around 450 BC.
