独眼巨人, or "Cyclops," is a creature from Greek mythology known for having a single eye in the center of its forehead. These giants are often depicted as strong and brutish, living in isolation. The most famous Cyclops is Polyphemus, who appears in Homer's epic poem, the Odyssey. In the story, Odysseus and his men encounter Polyphemus while exploring an island. After being captured, Odysseus devises a clever plan to escape by blinding the Cyclops. This tale highlights themes of cunning versus brute strength and the consequences of pride.
