Does the word museum have origins in Greek Mythology?

The word "museum" does have origins in Greek, but not directly in Greek mythology. It comes from the Greek word "mouseion" (Μουσείον), which originally referred to a place dedicated to the Muses. The Muses were goddesses in Greek mythology who presided over the arts and sciences, but the word "museum" itself isn't named *after* a specific myth or mythological figure. It's derived from the place where these goddesses were worshipped and knowledge was cultivated.
