Who Knew?

It is mostly thought that the month of May was named after the goddess Maia however there was a Greek Maia and a Roman Maia so it could have been either one,but just to muddy the water there is also a belief that the month was named for the Latin word maiores which means elders in contrast to the month of June which means youth from the Latin word iuniores. I'll let everyone decide on their own personal favorite.
