Etymology[]
Typhoeus is an alternative name of Typhon, the gigantic son of Gaia and the most dangerous monster in Greek mythology. As with nearly all Greek myths his precise description varied considerably, though the most commonly accepted depiction is that of a monstrously tall man with wings and two pythons in place of legs. With his mate echidna, he fathered many of the famous beasts that plagued the Mediterranean.
