Egyptian mythology
Bennu ('to shine' or 'to rise in brilliance') was a mythological bird of Ancient Egypt, which periodically renewed itself, like the Sun. It was known as "He Who Came Into Being by Himself".
It represented the spiritual component of Ra, Aton or Osiris and the soul force that guided the gods during the journey through the underworld.

The discovery of the asteroid Bennu coincided with the popularization of GIF animated graphics in advertising banners on web pages on the Internet, shortly after the patent was released in 1998. In addition, the asteroid received its official name in 2012, coinciding with the inclusion of the word 'gif' in the Oxford dictionary.
The asteroid Bennu is related with moving the focus of attention toward visual elements that generate interest, because they change their brightness and color quickly and strikingly.
