Aurora, Goddess of the Dawn: Difference between revisions

The figurine Kara Thrace receives from the oracle Brenn.

Aurora is the Roman goddess of the dawn, and possibly one of the Lords of Kobol. When Kara Thrace visits the oracle Brenn in Dogsville, she touches a small winged icon of the goddess, which is then given to her by the oracle.

She later gives the icon to Admiral William Adama as a figurehead to place on the bow of the model sailing ship he is building (Maelstrom).

Notes[edit]

After the events of the episode, "Crossroads, Part II", there is a possible connection between this probable Lord of Kobol and Kara Thrace. For more on this story arc, see The Destiny.
Her Greek counterpart is Eos. She belonged to the Titans and not the Olympians. Battlestar Galactica mythology has mixed many real-world Earth mythologies and theologies that otherwise would not be connected, such as Norse mythology (Ragnar, Valkyrie) and Judeo-Christian elements (God). But it might also indicate the Aurora does not belong to the Lords of Kobol.
Aurora is also the name of a ship in the Fleet.
