Here's what wikipedia has to say:
quote:
Ouranos is the Greek name of the sky, latinized as Uranus. In Greek mythology it is personified as the son and husband of Gaia, Mother Earth. They were ancestors of most of the Greek gods. His equivalent in Roman mythology was Caelus (sometimes Titan) ("sky"). He may have originally been the same Indo-European god as the Hindu Varuna.
Ouranos is Greek, but Latinization (not necessarily ROMANization) changed it to Uranus. It ALSO says that in ROMAN mythology, Caelus was the god of the sky.
So we have a Roman god of the sky named Caelus, and a Romanized god of the sky named Uranus?
I'm worse off than before.
Zeus is still Greek and Jupiter is still Roman, right?
