Breton mythology is themythology or corpus of explanatory and heroic tales originating inBrittany. TheBretons are the descendants ofinsular Britons who settled in Brittany from at least the third century. While the Britons were already Christianised in this era, the migrant population maintained an ancient Celtic mythos, similar to those ofWales andCornwall.
Breton mythology has many gods and mythical creatures specifically associated with nature cults. In this tradition of gods and creatures rooted in nature, there exist traces of certain Breton Catholic saints.
