KOS > MYTHOLOGY

MYTHOLOGY Mythology of Kos Dodecanese Greek Islands Greece

Long before the twelve gods of Olympus came to power, people worshipped and were ruled by the sons of Gaia (Earth) and Ouranos (Heaven). These were the giants, the Titans.

In a battle, that shook the very foundation of the universe, these giants fought against the Olympian gods, led by Zeus the son of the Titan, Chronos (Time).

The Titans were eventually defeated and after the battle, the giant known as Polivotis fled to Kos to seek refuge. The god of the sea, Poseidon, had a particular hatred for Polivotis and pursued him there. When Poseidon found Polivotis he broke off a part of Kos Island and hurled it at him, crushing the giant and killing him.

This, according to myth is how the isle of Nisyros was formed. (Nisyros was in fact part of Kos but was separated by an earthquake. The exact time when this occurred is unknown.).
