Hermetic
A container or barrier that is hermetic is sealed so that not even air can enter or leave. For example a tin (or can).
Hermetic - Etymology
The word hermetic comes from the syncretism of the Greek God Hermes and the Egyptian Thoth; this figure was also a mythological alchemist known as Hermes Trismegistus. The latter has three books attributed to him, the Emerald Tablet, the Corpus Hermeticum and The Kybalion. He was believed to possess a magic ability to seal treasure chests so that nothing could access their contents. Alchemists also frequently used distillation in their experiments, and needed an airtight seal to improve the efficiency of their alembic stills. Most alchemists, though, were considered to be Hermetics for adopting the philosophy of the Emerald Tablet or the Corpus Hermeticum.
