Greek sky god
Stilbon (Greek: Στίλβων) within the context of ancient Greek religion, is recognized as the sky god associated with Hermaon and the planet Mercury. The name "Stilbon" translates to "shining." This new name was introduced following the confusion caused by an overabundance of astronomical names. [1]
