In Etruscan religion and mythology, Thesan is the goddess of the dawn. In Etruria, she was worshipped at Caere's harbour of Pyrgi, where a temple was dedicated to her and a singular series of "daybreak antefixes" was excavated. She received offerings alongside the sun god Usil, as described in the Liber Linteus. In art, Thesan was typically depicted with wings, and sometimes in the nude. Thesan's equivalent in Roman mythology may have been the goddess Aurora, and her equivalent in Greek mythology may have been Eos. However, other evidence points to her likeness being assimilated into the Greek sea goddess Leucothea and the Latin goddess Mater Matuta.
