Pallas (Titan)

In Greek mythology, Pallas or Pallas (in Greek Παλλάς, Pallas) was a second-generation Titan, son of Crio and Eurybia, and therefore the brother of Perses and Astraeus. Together with his wife, the Stygian oceanid, he was the father of four "very distinguished" children: Zelo, Nike, Cratos and Bía; these four personifications "always sit by the side of gravisonating Zeus". Scylla, the sea monster.

Pallas also appears in another tradition, and is already attested in sources as old as the Homeric hymns. In this version he is imagined as the son of one Megamedes ("great lord"), who could reasonably be an epithet for the Titan Crio. Daughters of this Pallas were at least Eos and Selene, who in the Hesiodic version are descended from the Titans Hyperion and Thea.

The people of Pelene say that the city was named after Pallas, one of the Titans.

There is still another version about another Pallas or Pallante that may or may not be the same character, but is related to Athena; it only appears in clearly Latin authors.
