Hybris (mythology)

In Greek mythology, Hybris (/ˈhaɪbrɪs/; Ancient Greek: Ὕβρις, romanized: Húbris, lit.

'wanton violence', 'insolence')[1] was the personification of insolence.

[2][better source needed][3] According to the mythographer Apollodorus, the god Apollo "learned the art of prophecy from Pan, the son of Zeus and Hybris (Ὕβρεως)".

[4] Whether this Pan equates to Pan, the god of shepherds and flocks, who was usually said to be the son of Hermes, remains unclear.
