Juventus 罗马神话中的青春女神尤文图斯

尤文图斯（Juventus）是罗马神话中的青春女神。是大神朱庇特和天后朱诺所生的女儿。相对应于希腊神话中宙斯和赫拉的女儿赫柏（Hebe）。尤文图斯拥有少女般的青春和活力。在奥林匹斯圣山的神宴上侍候诸神，专门给他们斟酒。尤文图斯的双耳壶中盛有的长生不老酒拥有恢复老年人青春美貌的神力。同时尤文图斯还是青少年的守护神，所有罗马少年在即将成年之时都要前往神庙中祈求尤文图斯的庇佑。

1896年，意大利都灵市的一些中学生成立了一支足球俱乐部，起名就叫做juventus（尤文图斯），寓意像青春女神那样永远蓬勃向上，充满年轻活力。这就是大名鼎鼎的尤文图斯队的队名的由来。可惜尤文图斯队球风沉闷保守，人们便赠了一个与其队名意思截然相反的绰号“老妇人”。
