Freda [1]
was a god of war among the Frisians, who was worshipped with another similar figure, Weda, which caused the Romans to make a comparison with Castor and Pollux. They appear armed, with wings projecting from their shoulders. Predegaire (Lat. Fredegarius), a French ecclesiastical historian of the middle of the 7th century, has left a chronicle of France, and of Burgundy in particular, from Gregory of Tours to his own time (published as a sequel to the works of the former, Basle, 1568, 8vo, and later).
