A singular or alternate form referring to a Cyclops, the one-eyed giant from Greek mythology.
From Greek kyklos (circle) + ops (eye)—literally 'round eye' or 'one eye.' The singular form 'cyclop' is less common than Cyclops, but appears in some historical texts and variant usages.
The word 'cyclops' literally means 'circle-eyed' in Greek, suggesting these giants might be inspired by sightings of elephant skulls—the nasal cavity looks eerily like a giant eye socket.
