I am currently a fan of a show that is based on urban legends, Myths, and folklore.
One of the main characters a has a particular necklace he wears (A bunch of us (the fans that is) order a replica of it off line, including myself from the shows store) But none of us know what it means. Some suspect Dean's amulet could be Cernunnos/Kernunnos, frequently syncretized with
Herne, Celtic Horned God of hunters. Cernunnos/Herne has stag horns, but
representations can be fairly abstract, just hinting at horns. The hunter
thing definitely fits... As Dean and his brother are Supernatural Hunters

At first the style of the amulet does not look Celtic, but the more you see
old Celtic designs, the more Celtic it looks.
However this theory has been shot down, and butchered badly. Since the show has not specifically said or even mentioned the necklace, I have enclosed a picture of the necklace, in hopes that one of you my be able to shine some light on it, or at least give your honest opinion.

I would appreciate any help with the matter. Thank You
