Mars
For thousands of years it was only a red dot among the stars. When it came closer to the Earth and shone like a burning coal in the night, it must have roused terror among primitive sky watchers. By the time the Egyptians settled their civilization along the banks of the Nile, Mars had become familiar enough to receive a name: " Har décher ", the Red One. The Babylonians called Mars as " Nergal ", the Star of Death. The Greeks also associated it with warfare and bloodshed. The Greeks called Mars Ares, the war god, while the Romans called it Mars, the God of War.
