Andinus is a theonym used in the Roman Empire to refer to a god worshipped in the area of modern-day Kačanik, once upper Moesia - Dardania. It may be related to Andis. The theonym has been classified as a Continental Celtic deity but has also been taken to be an Illyrian divine name. At any rate, the epigraphic evidence for the theonym was uncovered in the area of the ancient Dardani tribe. The name may have local origin in Dardania, during the Trajan era. The name may have some Thracian - south Pannonian - Dalmatian element.
