a not-story for #MythologyMonday on the theme of #stars The Greeks didn't know the star they saw in the morning was the same they saw in the evening (Venus), and gave them 2 different names: Phosphoros and Esperos. Phosphoros: is a cool name, "light bearer", but it's more popular in his latin version: Lucifer. Centuries later a german alchemist was trying to obtain the philosopher's stone, and managed to get some luminous substance. He gave the new element an appropriate name: phosphorus.
