Saint Moura was a third-century Christian martyr who lived in Upper Egypt and Antinoöpolis. Married to a deacon named Timothy, she remained steadfast in her faith during a period of intense persecution. When local authorities pressured the couple to adopt paganism, they refused, leading to their execution by crucifixion. Depending on historical accounts, her death is attributed to either the reign of Decius or the period surrounding the rule of Carus and his sons.
