Where this word comes from

From Old High German Wōdan, from Proto-Germanic *Wōdanaz. A well-known attestation is from between 639 and 641, and relates an event most probably from 610 at Tuggen by Lake Zürich in today's Switzerland, although it has often been understood to have happened not far away at Bregenz by Lake Constance in today's western Austria, from an unscrupulous reading of the text by Jonas of Bobbio.
