Шаблон:Greek myth (aquatic nymphs)Doris (Шаблон:IPAc-en; Ancient Greek: Δωρίς/Δωρίδος means 'bounty'[1]), in Greek mythology, was a sea goddess. She was one of the 3,000 Oceanids, daughters of the Titans Oceanus[2] and Tethys.[3]

The name Doris is derived from the noun for a gift, δῶρον, from proto-Indo-European *déh₃rom of the same meaning.Шаблон:Cn

Function

When not associated with a god, Doris represented the fertility of the ocean, goddess of the rich fishing-grounds found at the mouths of rivers where fresh water mingled with the brine.Шаблон:Cn
