Cyclopes
Cyclopes are mythical one-eyed giants from ancient Greek mythology. They are often depicted as enormous, powerful beings with a single eye in the center of their forehead. In stories, they are portrayed as either primitive and brutish or as skilled artisans, like the blacksmiths working for gods. The most famous Cyclops is Polyphemus, encountered by Odysseus in Homer’s epic the "Odyssey." These creatures symbolize raw strength and primal nature, and their distinctive single eye sets them apart from humans and other mythical beings.
