   2. (Arch[ae]ology) Originally, a boundary stone dedicated to
      Hermes as the god of boundaries, and therefore bearing in
      some cases a head, or head and shoulders, placed upon a
      quadrangular pillar whose height is that of the body
      belonging to the head, sometimes having feet or other
      parts of the body sculptured upon it. These figures,
      though often representing Hermes, were used for other
      divinities, and even, in later times, for portraits of
      human beings. Called also herma. See Terminal statue,
      under Terminal. Hermetic

The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (30 December 2018):

Hermes

    An experimental, very high level, integrated
   language and system from the IBM Watson Research Centre,
   produced in June 1990.  It is designed for implementation of
   large systems and distributed applications, as well as for
   general-purpose programming.  It is an imperative language,
   strongly typed and is a process-oriented successor to
   NIL.

   Hermes hides distribution and heterogeneity from the
   programmer.  The programmer sees a single abstract machine
   containing processes that communicate using calls or sends.
   The compiler, not the programmer, deals with the complexity
   of data structure layout, local and remote communication, and
   interaction with the operating system.  As a result, Hermes
   programs are portable and easy to write.  Because the
   programming paradigm is simple and high level, there are many
   opportunities for optimisation which are not present in
   languages which give the programmer more direct control over
   the machine.

   Hermes features threads, relational tablesHermes is,
   typestate checking, capability-based access and dynamic
   configuration.

   Version 0.8alpha patchlevel 01 runs on RS/6000, Sun-4,
   NeXT, IBM-RT/BSD4.3 and includes a bytecode compiler,
   a bytecode->C compiler and run-time support.
