Шаблон:Other uses In Greek mythology, Aegaeon (Шаблон:Lang-grc-gre) may refer to the following figures:

  • Aegaeon also called Briareus, one of the Hecatoncheires.[1]
  • Aegaeon, an Arcadian prince as one of the 50 sons of the impious King Lycaon either by the naiad Cyllene,[2] Nonacris[3] or by unknown woman. He and his brothers were the most nefarious and carefree of all people. To test them, Zeus visited them in the form of a peasant. These brothers mixed the entrails of a child into the god's meal, whereupon the enraged Zeus threw the meal over the table. Aegaeon was killed, along with his brothers and their father, by a lightning bolt of the god.[4]
