The usage of "Late Greek" should be assigned to this name, because Maura is of Greek origin (see the comment that I left at the entry for Maurus) and was first used in the Late Greek period.Also, the name is written as Μαῦρα in Late Greek and as Μαύρα in Modern Greek. However, the name should be transcribed as Mavra for Modern Greek.- http://www.trismegistos.org/name/22443 (in English; this is about the name - also click on "Attestations by century")
