Briareus, one of the Hecatonchires or Hundred-handers. According to Tripp's Meridian Handbook of Classical Mythology,Briareus "gave the isthmus to the sea-god [Poseidon] and awarded the sun-god [Helius] the Acrocorinth, the mountain that looms steeply over the city. This height Helius later turned over to Aphrodite."
