Eureka (word)
"Eureka" comes from the Ancient Greek word "heúrēka", meaning "I found (it)", which is the first person singular perfect indicative active of the verb "heuriskō" "I find". It is closely related to heuristic, which refers to experience-based techniques for problem solving, learning, and discovery.
Urdesa
The name Urdesa comes from "Urbanización del Salado" which means "neighborhood by the estuary". The quarter was born as an urbanism project north to the city for the middle and upper class around 1956. The neighborhood lies on the estuary side and soon began with the construction of mansions with beautiful gardens and no fences. The German School Guayaquil opened its doors on 1958, as the first school on the neighborhood. Nevertheless, the school resettled in 1968 in the new neighborhood Los Ceibos. But by then, URDESA had already other educational institutions.
