  • Humanos reconheceram há muito tempo atrás a importância do Sol na manutenção de vida na Terra, e como resultado, várias sociedades veneraram o Sol, dando-lhe posições proeminentes em suas religiões e mitologias. Na mitologia grega, o Sol era venerado um Deus, Hélio, tornando-se posteriormente mais associado com Apolo. Posteriormente, os romanos adotaram Hélio, chamando-o de Sol. O Sol possuía uma posição central na mitologia e religião Asteca e Inca. (pt)
