I'd like to offer an addition to the answer below...

'E' itself doesn't appear in the modern Periodic Table but is cited as the classical element 'Ether' ( ætheror Aether), which is supposed to be the '5th element' occupying the space above the terrestrial sphere.

So it might be the definition of a vacuum before the greeks understood what that was, or space. Either way, it is a non-existent element, indeed an absence of element.

-------------original answer below------------

E??

Es = Einsteinium

Er = Erbium

Eu= Europium
