The month May was named for the Greek goddess Maia, who was identified with the Roman era goddess of fertility, Bona Dea.
A Pleiades daughter of Atlas and Pleione, and the mother of Hermes.
The Greek goddess, Maia. There was also a Roman Maia. She was paired with Vulcan (the god of fire and blacksmiths) as his female attribute in the earliest Roman cults. She was intertwined with other Roman goddesses: Bona Dea (the Good Goddess), Ops (Plenty, a fertility goddess) Juno (the procetress of the state and of women) and Magna Mater (the Great Mother). On the first day of Maius (May) the priests of Vulcan sacrificed a pregnant sow to Maia. This reproduced the link between Maia and Vulcan in archaic cult. As a result of Greek influence, the Roman Maia was linked to the Greek Maia.
As a goddess she was quite unimportant. She was the daughter of Atlas, the Titan. Zeus seduced her and she became the mother of Hermes.
