The explanation of mercury

Mercury can refer to mercury and mercury.

In Roman mythology, Mercur refers to the god in charge of commerce, tourism and theft. In Greek mythology, the corresponding gods are Hermes and Hermes. I think we learned a text about him in primary school. )

There is a one-to-one correspondence between Greek mythology and Roman mythology, that is, the same god has a name in Greek mythology and a name in Roman mythology. Of course, names in Greek mythology are more familiar. For example, Zeus, as we are familiar with, is named Zeus in Greece and Jupiter; In Rome. There is Cupid, the god of love, which is called Cupid in Greek mythology and eros in Roman mythology. Very interesting.
