Many Gods have been called God..
We actually don’t know! People have made suggestions that maybe there was a different god(s) mentioned in place of Dia, or other existing greetings were used.
But there are no written records. We were still using Primitive Irish when Christianity arrived which was written with Ogham and most Ogham stones are gravestones.

They said beware of Crom Cruach!
Christianity. When they invented the concept of gods.
I’d there a word for “hello” that isn’t “dia dhuit”?
