morning star
because the movements of venus appear to be discontinuous (it disappears due to its proximity to the sun, for many days at a time, and then reappears on the other horizon), some cultures did not immediately recognize venus as single entity; instead, they assumed it to be two separate stars on each horizon: the morning star and the evening star. the ancient egyptians, for example, believed venus to be two separate bodies and knew the morning star as tioumoutiri and the evening star as ouaiti. the ancient greeks called the morning star , ' (latinized "phosphorus"), the "bringer of light" or , ' (latinized "eosphorus"), the "bringer of dawn". the evening star they called "" (latinized "hesperus") (, the "star of the evening"). by hellenistic times, the ancient greeks identified it as a single planet, which they named after their goddess of love, aphrodite ("αφροδίτη") (phoenician astarte), a planetary name that is retained in modern greek. hesperos would be translated into latin as vesper and phosphoros as lucifer ("light bearer").
