Шаблон:Short description Agetor (Ancient Greek: Ἀγήτωρ), alternatively spelled Hegetor (Hγήτωρ means "leader, ruler') was an epithet given to several gods of Greek mythology,[1] primarily Zeus in the region of Lacedaemon.[2] The name probably describes Zeus as the ruler of gods, humankind, and the universe in general. Agetor was also an epithet of Apollo.[3] Finally, it was also an epithet applied to Hermes, who conducts the souls of men to the lower world. Under this name Hermes had a statue at Megalopolis.[4]
