Etymology
From Proto-Italic *auzōs (as Flōra from flōs), from Proto-Indo-European *h₂éwsōs (“dawn”). In the Proto-Indo-European religion it was personified as the goddess of the dawn, corresponding to the Roman goddess Aurōra, from *h₂ews- (“east”). Cognates include the Latin auster, Ancient Greek ἠώς (ēṓs), Sanskrit उषस् (uṣás, “dawn”, “Ushas”), and the English east.
