In ancient Latin as well as Greek, Phaeton was the sun of the sun god, Helios. When Helios allowed Phaeton to drive the sun chariot, Phaeton drove so close the earth almost burned up. To prevent that, Zeus struck him down with a thunderbolt.
English word: Our word phaeton means a type of light, four-wheeled carriage with no sidepieces. It also means a type of open car body with two cross seats.
