*H₂éwsōs or *Haéusōs (lit. 'the dawn'), romanized as Hausos, is the reconstructed name of the dawn goddess in Proto-Indo-European mythology.
Her attributes were subsequently expanded and adopted into female deities found in subsequent cultures and mythologies, including solar goddesses. *H₂éwsōs is believed to have been one of the most important deities worshipped by Proto-Indo-European speakers due to the consistency of her characterization in subsequent traditions.
