HYPNOS was the god or personified spirit daimon of sleep. He dwelt in Erebos, the land of eternal darkness beyond the gates of the rising sun, and rose into the sky each night in the train of his mother Nyx Night. Hypnos was often paired with his twin brother Thanatos Peaceful Death, and the Oneiroi Dreams were his brothers or sons. Hypnos was depicted as a young man with wings on his shoulders or brow. It all began in 1971 as a game of speculation a bit of light relief from the rigours of tectonic and oceanographic investigation in the Mediterranean. His attributes included either a horn of sleep inducing opium, a poppy stem, a branch dripping water from the river Lethe Forgetfulness, or an inverted torch. His Roman equivalent was Somnus or Sopor. FAMILY OF HYPNOSPARENTS1. NYX no father Hesiod Theogony 2. Homer Iliad 1. 4.

C., British Museum. Homer, Iliad 1. 4. Lattimore Greek epic C8th B. C. There in Lemnos she Hera encountered Hypnos Sleep, the brother of Thanatos Death. She clung fast to his hand and spoke a word and called him by name Hypnos, lord over all mortal men and all gods, if ever before now you listened to word of mine, so now also do as I ask and all my days I shall know gratitude. Put to sleep the shining eyes of Zeus under his brows as soon as I have lain beside him in love. I will give you gifts a lovely throne, imperishable forever, of gold. My own son, he of the strong arms, Hephaistos, shall make it with careful skill and make for your feet a footstool on which you can rest your shining feet when you take your pleasure. Then Hypnos the still and soft spoke to her in answer Hera, honoured goddess and daughter of mighty Kronos Cronus, any other one of the gods, whose race is immortal, I would lightly put to sleep, even the stream of that River Okeanos Oceanus, whence is risen the seed of all the immortals. But I would not come too close to Zeus, the son of Kronos, nor put him to sleep, unless he himself were to tell me. Before now, it was a favour to you that taught me wisdom, on the day Herakles Heracles, the high hearted son of Zeus, was sailing from Ilion, when he had utterly sacked the city of the Trojans. That time I laid to sleep the brain in Zeus of the aegis and drifted upon him still and soft, but your mind was devising evil, and you raised along the sea the blasts of the racking winds, and on these swept him away to Kos, the strong founded, with all his friends lost, but Zeus awakened in anger and beat the gods up and down his house, looking beyond all others for me, and would have sunk me out of sight in the sea from the bright sky had not Nyx Night who has power over gods and men rescued me. I reached her in my flight, and Zeus let be, though he was angry, in awe of doing anything to swift Nyx displeasure. Now you ask me to do this other impossible thing for you. Then in turn the lady ox eyed Hera answered him Hypnos, why do you ponder this in your heart, and hesitate Or do you think that Zeus of the wide brows, aiding the Trojans, will be angry as he was angry for his son, Herakles Come now, do it, and I will give you one of the younger Kharites Charites, Graces for you to marry, and she shall be called you lady Pasithea, since all your days you have loved her forever. So she spoke, and Hypnos was pleased and spoke to her in answer Come then Swear it to me on Styx ineluctable water. With one hand take hold of the prospering earth, with the other take hold of the shining salt sea, so that all the undergods who gather about Kronos Cronus may be witnesses to us. Swear that you will give me one of the younger Kharites, Pasithea, the one whom all my days I have longed for. He spoke, nor failed to persuade the goddess Hera of the white arms, and she swore as he commanded, and called by their names on all those gods who live beneath Tartaros the Pit, and who are called Titanes Titans. Then when she had sworn this, and made her oath a complete thing, the two went away from Lemnos, and the city of Imbros, and mantled themselves in mist, and made their way very lightly till they came to Ida with all her springs, the mother of wild beasts, to Lekton, where first they left the water, and went on over dry land, and with their feet the top of the forest was shaken. There Hypnos stayed, before the eyes of Zeus could light on him, and went up aloft a towering pine tree, the one that grew tallest at that time on Ida, and broke through the close air to the aither. In this he sat, covered over and hidden by the pine branches, in the likeness of a singing bird whom in the mountains the immortal gods call khalkis, but men call him kymindis.
