Where does the word protean come from?
The word protean comes from the ancient Greek myth of Proteus, god of bodies of water. Proteus was said to be able to predict the future or reveal the truth, but would magically change shape to avoid being forced to do so. Famously (In the Odyssey) Menelaus caught Proteus and forced him to reveal the truth regarding the gods.
