Soooo...apparently, Leto was born in Hyporborea- which is really somewhere in Britain. And "Apollo" comes from some Celtic word meaning "apple man" and is related to Avalon. Apollo is not associated with, but actually is the Celtic Bel. Oh, and his journey from Hyporborea (Britain)- which he makes every nineteen years, by the way- traces some line of a trans-European axis of sacred sites.
Riiiiiiiight.
