In Irish mythology, Dian Cecht was a god of healing. He was the healer for the Tuatha Dé Danann and the father of Cian.
He blessed a well called Slane so that the Tuatha de could bathe in when wounded; they became healed and continued fighting.
He made King Nuada's silver arm. Dian Cecht's son, Miach, replaced the silver arm with an arm of flesh and blood; Dian Cecht killed him out of professional envy.
