    Curious fact: "Jupiter" (the god and the planet) comes from a combination of 2 indoeurpean words: "Djëus/Djòs" -which Latin "deus" (generic god) also derives from- meaning "sky/lightning", and "Phter", meaning "Father". Check out corresponding chief gods in other indoeuropean languages:

    Greek: Zeus Patér
    Sanskrit: Dyáuṣ Pitṛ́
    Persian: Daeva Pitr
    Celtic: Dēuos Athir

    A Djëus root is also found inside "Tuesday"
