Andinus

Andinus is an Illyrian god worshipped among the Dardanians in Moesia Superior.[1][2]

The only trace left is a name carved on an altar dedicated by a beneficiarus ("a foreigner"). Variants of the name such as Andia or Andio were common among the Dardanians.[2] As the region of Kosovo was located on the road that went from the Adriatic Sea to Dacia, personal names like Ulpius Andinus or Ulpia Andia appeared among new citizens in the area during the reign of Trajan.[3]

gollark: * is, I should say
gollark: Anyway, the school's CS education was not great and/or some people in the class were quite bad at it.
gollark: But having us looking at screens and occasionally typing would be too boring, so they just had us press random buttons on the Arduino handheld games-consoley things we got a while to work on, and type nonsense in.
gollark: <@!236831708354314240> There was one fun time where they wanted some video of "computer science" happening for a school promotional video.
gollark: Okay, so I can't find the actual computer CS science tests.
