Etymology

The name "Precea" comes from the original name of the city founded by the Solarians, Preceus. The name of Preceus comes from the Solarian word Preces, which means "prayers". The city of Preceus's naming derives from the location being a place where Solarian soldiers would stop during troop movements as a rest stop where many of the soldiers would use a site of praying.
