[saturn’s day] one day to go

The Sumerian and Babylonian Ninurta, the Greek Cronos and the Latin Saturnus all join to bring to a close the working week. Saturnus was identified in classical antiquity with the Greek deity Cronus, and the mythologies of the two gods are commonly mixed. Either way, the photo of him eating his children might scare the children so the photo of the planet appears instead. Tomorrow’s a rest day, folks and over here we now have four days of holidays !

  1. Have a nice break. Knowing you, it will be ten posts a day. I have enjoyed the days of the week. Very interesting.
