''The Irish and Welsh cognates of Lugus are [[Lugh]] and [[Lleu Llaw Gyffes|Lleu]], respectively, and certain traditions concerning these figures mesh neatly with those of the Gaulish god. Caesar's description of the latter as "the inventor of all the arts" might almost have been a paraphrase of Lugh's conventional epithet ''samildánach'' ("possessed of many talents"), while Lleu is addressed as "master of the twenty crafts" in the ''[[Mabinogi]]''.<ref name="Ford">Patrick K.
