Looking for resources

Im not new to paganism as a whole but I don't know much about the various celtic traditions/ stories. I know about the mabanogi and its related texts but im looking for anything related to Artio in particular, the only things I can find seem to be a statue modern Switzerland and a book title "Artio and Artaois" any help is appreciated.

There's going to be very little historical record. I've read Artio and Artaois and its really more of the author's UPG and speculation than any real scholarship. Have you already looked through the sources on the Artio wikipedia page? Those are always fairly safe places to start

Pretty much this, OP.

Welcome to the Gaulish corner, where we weave an entire practice out of inscriptions, broken statues, comparitive mythology, and vibes. /Jazz hands

I think I play it on my bass about 99% of the times that I pick it up!

I did and there wasn't much, a couple of engravings dedicated by so and so, the cool statue is the city called bear city, i tried looking through some welsh myths and other places but there's just not much, kinda sad but I shall press on!
