Habondia (or Habundia)
The queen of the witches, presiding over the Sabbat. She was also identified with Diana or Herodias. She was referred to as "Habonde" in the thirteenth-century poem Le Roman de la Rose. In his work Tableau de l'inconstance des mauvais anges (Description of the inconstancy of evil angels, 1612), the demonologist Pierre de Lancre refers to Habondia rather sweepingly as "Queen of the fairies, witches, harpies, furies; and ghosts of the wicked."
