Ορειος | Oreios | Oreus | Of the Mountain |
AGRIOS (Agrius) and OREIOS (Oreus) were a pair of half-bear Thrakian (Thracian) giants. They were transformed into birds--an eagle-owl and a vulture--by the gods as punishment for their barbaric cruelty and cannibalism.
Their names mean "Wild One" or "Savage One" from the Greek word agrios and "Of the Mountain" from oreios.
