Μενοιτιος | Menoitios | Menoetius | Doomed Might |
MENOITIOS (Menoetius) was one of the younger Titanes. He was perhaps the god rash action and violent rage. Zeus blasted him with a thunderbolt into Erebos (the Underworld) for his hubris.
Menoitios' name was derived from the Greek words menos meaning "might", "force", "passion" and "batterage", and oitos meaning "ill-fated" or "doomed". Hesiod calls him hybristes--a violent, overbearing and insolent man.
