Hence he was called διφυής (diphues) or of two natures.Hyginus, Fabulae 48Antoninus Liberalis, Metamorphoses 6Aristophanes, The Wasps 438Ovid, Metamorphoses 2.555Euripides, Ion 1163 ffTzetzes, Scholiast on Lycophron 111 Diodorus rationalized that his double form was because of his double citizenship, Greek and barbarian.

Notes on etymologies: Anobret: proposed connections include ʿyn = "spring", by Renan ("Memoire", 281), and to ʿAnat rabbat = "Lady ʿAnat" by Clemen (Die phönikische Religion, 69-71); Ieoud/Iedud: perhaps from a Phoenician cognate of Hebrew yḥyd = "only" or of Hebrew ydyd = "beloved".

Around the margins of the granite, the original stratigraphy – the order in which the layers of sedimentary rock were initially deposited – is complicated by the fact that thrust faulting has led to older rocks coming to lie on top of younger rocks in many areas, the contact between the two being a slide plane. If the underlying rocks have not moved substantially from their original position then they are referred to as an autochthon and the overlying rocks, which have moved into that position as an allochthon, allochthonous block or nappe. To the west of the granite, the Greystone Nappe is seen to have over-ridden the rocks of the autochthonous Kate Brook Slate Formation (also known as the Tavy Formation). The Greystone Nappe is formed from numerous formations of Carboniferous age.

Sanchuniathon tells only: > In their time is born a certain Elioun called "the Most High," and a female > named Beruth, and these dwelt in the neighbourhood of Byblos. And from them > is born Epigeius or Autochthon, whom they afterwards called Sky; so that > from him they named the element above us Sky because of the excellence of > its beauty. And he has a sister born of the aforesaid parents, who was > called Earth, and from her, he says, because of her beauty, they called the > earth by the same name.
