Best Answer

Just another name for Aries, the Greek God of War. The Romans renamed him Mars. And they named a planet after him ... the same one the Greeks called Aries.

It is also a composition by British composer Gustav Holst (1874-1934) best known for his suite of works called the Planets. One of the most popular works from that suite is "Mars the bringer of war".

How many movements in Holst's the planents?

In the original suite by Holst, there are seven movements: Mars, the Bringer of War; Venus, the Bringer of Peace; Mercury, the Winged Messenger; Jupiter, the Bringer of Jollity; Saturn, the Bringer of Old Age; Uranus, the Magician; and Neptune, the Mystic. The movements are ordered in the planets' increasing distances from Earth. When Pluto was discovered in 1930, Holst did not write a movement for it. However, in 2000, Collin Matthews was hired to write a movement for Pluto. He named it "Pluto, the Renewer". Now that Pluto is no longer a planet, the suite is once again complete.

Why Mars was named Mars?

mars (like other planets) are named for a reason. mars was named mars because it was named after a roman god of war, mars. mars was the son of juno and jupiter. he was the husband of bellona ( an ancient war god) and lover of venus.hope that answers your question.Yeah,and i think its got its name from the god of war of ancient rome because mars`s colour is red wich indicated the colour of blood,thats why its named after the god of war :),Also strangely no planet is named after greek gods...only roman
