dividends paid on a member's investment into the

at least Sumerian times roughly 5,000 years ago,
where it was
often associated with Nabu, the god of writing.
Mercury was also given separate names for its
appearance as both a morning star and as an
evening star. Greek astronomers knew, however, that

orbited the sun.
