Hermes, member of Those Who Came Before ?

Hermes was worshiped as a god by Egyptians and Ancient Greeks, can we consider him as being part of the First Civilisation ? 86.73.99.171 05:07, April 24, 2012 (UTC)

Sounds likely to me, but can't be included unless it's explicitly mentioned. =GuardDog 05:09, April 24, 2012 (UTC)

There has been a mention of "all Gods being TWCB," though I need to check where it was and how it was worded exactly. Nesty ^{Contact me!} 06:24, April 24, 2012 (UTC)

Well, I'm not really sure he can be considered an actual "god," but it is quite likely that he is a member of the First Civilization. Let's not take our chances though. -- Master Sima Yi 06:28, April 24, 2012 (UTC)

I could see that working...in some ways, Zeus would make a badass TWCB.

Hasn't Zeus already been shown in Assassin's Creed: Revelations? I know it was Jupiter, but I thought it was the same being, and their names were changed by each human culture. Correct me if I'm wrong though. Arcemz (talk) 08:06, April 24, 2012 (UTC)Arcemz

It is quite likely that they are the same being, yes, even more so in AC lore, but in actual mythology they are more regarded as equivalents to each other rather than the same being. We can't be too sure what they are in AC lore. -- Master Sima Yi 08:08, April 24, 2012 (UTC)

Ah of course silly me, I forgot about Jupiter...such a long time since I played through AC:R

Name of the article

Shouldn't this be renamed simply as Hermes, given that that's by far the most common (and most recent) term for the individual in question? Sadelyrate (siniath) 13:13, April 22, 2019 (UTC)

Appreciate that this is a late response, but "Hermes" isn't an alternative, more common name to Hermes Trismegistus, it is simply his first name alone. He is also referred to by Persephone, at least once, as Hermes Trismegistus and the Staff is named as such too. --Jasca Ducato (talk | contributions) 12:19, April 29, 2019 (UTC)
