The Greeks, along with the ancient Chinese, Arabs and all other civilizations except the Egyptians had no word for blue.
It's interesting in that all civilizations start with only mentions of black and white, then red and orange and next green and then yellow, though these last two are sometimes reversed in their first mention.
Blue is always last.
Homer called the sky 'bronze'.
He also described wine, sheep and the sea as being the same colour; red.

I'm going to get myself some beauty sleep too.
Will take a few months of continual sleep but you have to start somewhere!
So night night people
See you tomorrow
Take care.
Night night.
I'm far beyond any chance of getting more beautiful by sleeping so I'll stay up a bit.
Nighty night.
