Sexarbores is an ancient Gallic god known only from inscriptions found in the Hautes-Pyrénées.
Etymology Sexarbores can be translated in Latin as 'six-trees'. It was probably originally a toponym.
Although cases of tree worshipping are attested in the Celtic world, the name may also have been used metonymically to denote an agrarian deity.
Inscriptions Sexarbores is only known from inscriptions found in the Pays d'Aspet, around Castelbiague and Arbas in France, whose forest probably fed the wood needs of the nearby city. Unlike most votive monuments of this region of Haute-Garonne, the altars in question give the names of divinities translated into Latin. Sexarbores seems to have been honored solely or mainly by Roman citizens, perhaps woodcutters.cf R.Sablayrolles CIL, XIII, 129 (Arbas) : CIL, XIII, 132 (Castelbiague) : CIL, XIII, 175 (Castelbiague) :
