Literature | Hundred-handed (The). Three of the sons of Uranus were so called, viz. Ægaeon or Briareus [Bri'-a-ruce], Kottos, and Gyges or Gyes. Called in Greek Hekatogcheiros [hek'-ka-ton-kiros]. After the war between Zeus and the Titans, when the latter were overcome and hurled into Tartarus, the Hundred-handed ones were set to keep watch and ward over them. (See Giants.) Sometimes the three-headed Cerberus is so called, because the necks were covered with snakes instead of hair. Source: Brewer's Dictionary. |
