In page Epona:

"

Perceptions of native Celtic goddesses had changed under Roman hegemony: only the names remained the same.[citation needed] As Gaul was Romanized under the early Empire, Epona's sovereign role evolved into a protector of cavalry.[6] The cult of Epona was spread over much of the Roman Empire by the auxiliary cavalry, alae, especially the Imperial Horse Guard or equites singulares augustii recruited from Gaul, Lower Germany, and Pannonia. A series of their dedications to Epona and other Celtic, Roman, and German deities was found in Rome, at the Lateran.[7] Her cult is said to have been "widespread also in Carinthia and Styria".[8]
