Had

This name derives from the Ancient Greek “eídomai (εἴδομαι) hádēs (ᾍδης) hāidēs (Ἅιδης),” meaning “unseen.” In turn, this name derives from the PIE (Proto Indo-European) “*weyd-,” meaning “to see, behold, to see mentally, to perceive.” Hades was the ancient Greek god of the underworld. Eventually, the god’s name came to designate the abode of the dead. In Greek mythology, Hades is the oldest male child of Cronus and Rhea, considering birth from the mother, or the youngest, evaluating the regurgitation by the father. He had three sisters, Demeter, Hestia, and Hera, as well as two brothers, Zeus, the youngest of the three, and Poseidon, collectively comprising the original six Olympian gods.
