Meaning & History
Furrina was an ancient Roman goddess whose function had become obscure by the 1st century BC. Her cult dated to the earliest period of Roman religious history, since she was one of the fifteen deities who had their own flamen, the Furrinalis, one of the flamines minores. There is some evidence that Furrina was associated with water. The name itself might be related to the Indo-European root *bhr-u-n, indicating the moving or bubbling of water.
