#Mars

In Italian "Marte". It was the God of War for the Romans (and of course the planet fourth in order from the sun.)

"Martial" (in Italian 'Marziale") derives from "Mars" as well as "Martedi' (Tuesday) the day dedicated to the God of War.

That's it for today.

Have yourself a Martial Tuesday!
