BELINUS.  Another form of Celtic Belenos (q.v.), meaning, "Lord."  Also spelled Belenus and Bellaunos.

When Baal, Bel, or Belinus, is to be taken as the name of any specific divinity, it is to be understood to signify, in the western parts of Europe, Apollo, while in the east it implied Jupiter, according to Pliny, who, in describing Babylon, says, "Ibi Jovis Beli templum."  In English, "There is the temple of Jupiter Belus."
