In Greek mythology Celtine (Κελτίνη) was the daughter of Bretannus king of the Celts. She is known for having been one of the consorts of Heracles. Her story recorded by Parthenius of Nicaea is as follows.When Heracles was driving the cattle of Geryones to Greece he stopped at Bretannus’ house. Celtine fell in love with her father’s guest and tricked him into consorting with her: she hid away the kine and told Heracles that in order to get the herd back he had to content her.
