[114] The Laestrygones, as having a king and an ἀγορή, are more advanced in the externals of civilisation than the Cyclopes. The name of the king may be “Ἀντιφάτης”, giving as genitive “Ἀντιφάταο”, v. 106; or “Ἀντιφατεύς”, from which would come the accusative “Ἀντιφατῆα”. Eustath. quotes the two forms, “Γηρυόνης” and “Γηρυονεύς”.
