Origen de la palabra Hecatombe


Solemos decir en español la frase "se formo la hecatombe" a un gran lio y sin saber que hay de gran similitud con esta palabra mal prounciada, el origen es griego y fue un gigante, de geralquia titan que ayudo a Zeus a no ser destituido por otros Dioses,pues la fuerza y poder de sus cien mas eran suficiente para amedrentar la revuelta

Hecatonchires, or Hekatonkheires (pron.: /ˌhɛkəˈtɒŋkəriːz/; Ancient Greek: Ἑκατόγχειρες (listen) (help·info) "Hundred-Handed Ones", Latinised Centimani), were figures in an archaic stage of Greek mythology, three giants of incredible strength and ferocity that surpassed that of all Titans whom they helped overthrow. Their name derives from the Greek ἑκατόν (hekaton; "hundred") and χείρ (kheir; "hand"), "each of them having a hundred hands and fifty heads" (Bibliotheca). Hesiod's Theogony (624, 639, 714, 734–35) reports that the three Hekatonkheires became the guards of the gates of Tartarus.
