📜 What should you know about summer?

In the western imaginary, we associate summer with the sun, abundance, vintage with human adulthood. Ancient civilizations worshiped their solar gods during the solstice.

For example, in Assyrian mythology, the god Mot by killing his brother Baal caused the advent of drought, that is, summer. Also in Greek mythology, summer was personified by Carpus, goddess of heat fruits and daughter of Breeze, one of the names of the god of the west wind, Zephyr.

Although having more sunlight does not directly imply that it is hotter since the first day of summer is the day that receives the most sunlight and yet it is not usually the hottest day. This fact occurs because the atmosphere and the oceans act as a heat barrier, absorbing the sun's rays and these are released after several weeks. That is why the hottest days of summer occur in the middle of the season.
