Feeding-Many

POLYBOTES was one of the Gigantes (Giants) who battled Poseidon in the war against the gods. He was pursued across the sea and crushed beneath the rock of Nisyros near the island of Kos (Cos).


His name means "fertile" from the Greek word polybôtos or, more literally, "feeding-many" from the words poly- and bôtos.
