MUNAX, from
[Mun]in and Cor[ax]
The latin name for the Raven is Corvus Corax, as named in 1758 by Carolus Linnaeus, the
Swedish biologist who invented the two-name system of classifying organisms by Latin
names.
Munin is one of the two ravens of Odin, the god of visdom in the Nordic Viking mythology
(Viking ages 700 A.D. 1100 A.D.). The ravens fly over the earth. They remember
everything. When the ravens come back, they tell Odin what they have seen.
Just the same way as the Munax ravens tell the Munax database what they have seen.
