Origin of the name THOUERIS.
Etymology of the name THOUERIS.
Meaning of the baby name THOUERIS.

  

THOUÉRIS (Θουέρις).  Greek form of Egyptian Ta-Urt (q.v.), meaning "the great" or "the first."  Also spelled Thoeris.

    "According to Plutarch, Thoueris, viz. the strong and mighty lady, was Typhon's lover; this lover, according to others, was likewise called Aso, the queen of Ethiopia."
    This Thoueris is one of the goddesses of the Egyptian pantheon, the temple consort of Typhon, and the fact of her having an alias as queen of Ethiopia is remarkable when we observe how closely the name Thoueris resembles Tharbis, which Josephus states was the name of the daughter of the king of Ethiopia whom Moses married. (The New Nation, Morris, v.3, 1880).
