Daurentius or Dauritas was a Slavic (Sclaveni) chieftain in the 6th century. He seems to have been the supreme chief of a Slavic tribal confederation, which "fellow chiefs" were either subordinated to him or of a similar tribal rank and status as Daurentius.
Etymology Linguists consider that the original Slavic form of the name was Dobręta, which was rendered via the Greek pronunciation and transcription of "β=ν".
