In Roman mythology, the goddess Rusina, also known as Rurina, was a protector of the fields or farmland, one of the ancient di indigetes. Her name is related to the Latin word rus, meaning "countryside", which is also the source of the word rural.
A related Roman deity, Rusor, was associated with the goddess Tellus. Rusor may mean something like "ploughman".
