LatinEdit
EtymologyEdit
From Old Latin Māvors, from Proto-Italic *Māwortis. Mamers was his Oscan name. He was also known as Marmor, Marmar and Maris, the latter from the Etruscan deity Maris.
PronunciationEdit
Proper nounEdit
Mārs m sg (genitive Mārtis); third declension
Usage notesEdit
The name of the god could, through interpretatio romana, serve to replace the name of a war god in a foreign language. Thus Saxo Grammaticus, for example, uses the term to refer to the Norse god Odin, alternating it with the borrowed form Ōthinus.
