Janus was a Roman God, typically referred to at new years,
Because he had two faces, one facing forward
(to the new year,) and one backward( to the
Year gone by) perhaps your is a variant,
With a third face looking at the present?
Just a thought.
Resteeming too. Have a great day.

Awesome! Maybe who knows?


In ancient Roman religion and myth, Janus (/ˈdʒeɪnəs/; Latin: IANVS (Iānus), pronounced [ˈjaː.nus]) is the god of beginnings, gates, transitions, time, duality, doorways, passages, and endings.
He is usually depicted as having two faces, since he looks to the future and to the past.
It is conventionally thought that the month of January is named for Janus (Ianuarius),
but according to ancient Roman farmers' almanacs Juno was the tutelary deity of the month.

Janus
In ancient Roman religion and myth, Janus (; Latin: IANVS (Iānus), pronounced [ˈjaː.nus]) is the god of beginnings, gates, transitions, time, duality, doorways, passages, and endings. He is usually depicted as having two faces, since he looks to the future and to the past. It is conventionally thought that the month of January is named for Janus (Ianuarius), but according to ancient Roman farmers' almanacs Juno was the tutelary deity of the month.Janus presided over the beginning and ending of conflict, and hence war and peace. The gates of a building in Rome named after him (not a temple, as it is often called, but an open enclosure with gates at each end) were opened in time of war, and closed to mark the arrival of peace (which did not happen very often).

I was already aware of the "Two Faced God" Janus, just brought you the links so you
Could read for yourself.
