In Greek mythology, Thanatos (/ˈθænətɒs/; Ancient Greek: [[Θάνατος]], pronounced in Ancient Greek: "Death", from [[θνῄσκω]] thnēskō "to die, be dying") was the personification of death. He was a minor figure in Greek mythology, often referred to but rarely appearing in person. | |||
His name is transliterated in Latin as [[Thanatus]], but his equivalent in Roman mythology is [[Mors]] or [[Letum]]. Mors is sometimes erroneously identified with Orcus, whose Greek equivalent was Horkos, God of the Oath. | |||
