Hybris (mythology)
In Greek mythology, Hybris (/ˈhaɪbrɪs/; Ancient Greek: Ὕβρις, lit. 'wanton violence', 'insolence') was the personification of insolence. According to the mythographer Apollodorus the god Apollo "learned the art of prophecy from Pan, the son of Zeus and Hybris (Ὕβρεως)". Whether this Pan is the same as Pan, the god of shepherds and flocks, who was usually said to be the son of Hermes is unclear.
