这个词来源于希腊词Museion;意思是”谬斯神庙”。谬斯(the Muses)是主管音乐、诗歌、舞蹈、天文等九位女神的总称。他们喜居于希腊南帕那萨斯山脚下以及赫利孔山上的名泉之中。因此,至今仍有fountain of knowledge(知识的源泉),springs of inspiration(灵感的源泉)的说法。出于对谬斯女神们的敬仰,古希腊人把艺术作品以及自然科学方面的物品放置在谬斯神庙,即mouseion里面。
公元前280年,古埃及王托勒密一世在亚历山大城建造的西方第一座收藏文物的博物馆,据说就是以谬斯命名的,这是一座世界上最着名的古代博物馆,一直存在了将近七百年,后来焚于战火。
至今在欧洲国家文字中,不论英、法、德等,都把”博物馆”称作museum。
