Meaning & Origin of Aradia

Origin: Italian (folklore, 19th century).

A common claim: Aradia is described as an ancient Italian goddess of witches. Actually: Aradia isn't from ancient mythology — she comes from "Aradia, or the Gospel of the Witches," a collection of Italian folklore published by Charles Leland in 1899, and scholars still debate how much of it reflects genuine older tradition.
