Meaning & History

Meaning uncertain, perhaps from Greek ἄορ (aor) meaning "sword hung in a belt". In Greek legend this name belonged to a son of Aras, an autochthon who was believed to have built Arantea, the most ancient town in Phliasia. When his sister Araethyrea died, Aoris renamed the country of Phliasia 'Araethyrea' after her.
