for some reason i agree with spikey, but what the heck is with typhus? he's only gotten to terra in the heresy and he was not pestilent then. anyways, does anyone think the void dragon would want to come out of its hidey hole and suck the thing dry? i bet it can sense the enourmous amount of energy.

It'll still be called the sun or maybe Sol in high gothic.
Sol is already the name of our sun, hence the name SOLar system.

Plus, even if i`m wrong, it`s probably right since SOL is the name for mister SUN in olde` latin


PS Honestly, i love the fact that they call the MOON ~ LUNA (also latin)

PPS Shouldn`t MARS be called MARTE?

I think Inquisitor Draco called it Sol in the Inquisition war.
I think sol was mentioned in Flight of the Eisenstien.
I'm sure I've seen some 40k starmap where Sol was mentioned in conjunction with Terra.

The list goes on...

Why helios?

*digs up "Ye olde Latin booketh" for inspection*

Sun = Sol

As far as i know Helios is the greek name for the sun god, the Romans took the god and called him Helius, but they didn`t really use him in theyr myths that much.

Eventhough early on they (romans) used a LOT of greek names they changed them quite fast, Helios turning into Apolo, Gaia into Terra, Artemis into Athena, Zeus into Jupiter and so on and so forth.

Honestly, safe for Zeus, i prefer the Roman names



PS The one and only, solar apolo:



Nope, it`s not taken from a christian church, i promise :P


But still, they had SOL(is) for sun and Apolo for sun god.

Artemis and Athena are both Greek Gods- Apollo is Artermis' twin brother, they represented the Sun and Moon respectively in the Greek Pantheon.

By Scott you`re right

Artemis was called Diana by the romans

Dunno, with stories that shift as much as religion does, it`s hard for me to keep things straight.

PS Artemis was an earth godess in the early years before she became godess of the hunt and i think it was even later that she became Apolo`s sister after she came to be worshiped as a smexy virgin

PPS I don`t like the stories around Artemis pictured as the smexy huntress, like that one about how se turns a hunter into a stag to be attacked and killed by his own dogs because he saw her taking a bath in river/lake/whatever.
