The Chaldean or Syriac word for "wealth" or "riches" is also mammona, and in Modern times it is utilized in several Slavic languages  to denote Wealth - apparently tracing back to Biblical roots.

In the Greek pantheon Mammon was portrayed as Ploutos {Plutos} who was the boy-twin of the "wealthy" ruler of the underworld . Initially Plutus was the god of bountiful harvests but later he came to represent wealth in more general and negative terms.  With the arrival of the Christian Era he was replaced with Mammon in the popular Mythology.  Several Modern words have their origins in Plutos -Plutocracy: Rule by the wealthiest -- Plutonomics: The study of wealth management --  Plutolatry: the "worship" of money . The ancient Greek translation of the Jewish scriptures {Septuagint} in Psalm 37:3, uses plouto, in reference to "riches" and and a simile of mammon.
