Eleutheria
The Greek word "ἐλευθερία" (capitalized Ἐλευθερία; Attic Greek pronunciation: [eleu̯tʰeˈria]; Modern Greek pronunciation: [elefθeˈɾia]), transliterated as eleutheria or eleftheria, is a Greek term for, and personification of, the Goddess of Liberty. Eleutheria personified had a brief career on coins of Alexandria.
In Ancient Greece, Eleutheria was also an epithet for the goddess Artemis, and as such she was worshipped in Myra of Lycia. The Roman equivalent of the goddess Eleutheria is Libertas, a goddess in her own right, and a personification of liberty.
