Meaning & History
Antaura is a Greek Demon of migraine headaches. She rises up out of the sea, moves like the wind, and enters into people’s heads to cause intense pain. Antaura is thwarted by the goddess Artemis, who diverts Antaura into the head of a bull in the mountains.
Modern-day academics speculate that Antaura has developped from Abyzou, a female Sumerian demon who kills children.
