Trivia

  • Quitterie is a feminine name and it is originally Latin but it is also French, it means "quiet".

Speculation

  • Saint Quiteria was a 5th century virgin martyr and saint. Nothing is certain about Quiteria except her name and her cult. Her name is a title that the Phoenicians gave to the goddess Astarte: Kythere, Kyteria, or Kuteria, which means "the red one.", which some take to mean that she might be a fictional saint. She may also have been named after the pagan goddess, or just as likely, after one of the names of Aphrodite, "Cytherea", after the island where the goddess was allegedly born.
    • When Quiteria was beheaded, her falling head hit the ground and a water fountain sprang from the spot. Coincidentally, a bishop named Faust made a sermon that day referring the miracle that converted the entire city area into Christianity.
