No, Ozymandias was the name given to him long after his time by the Greeks. The phase comes from a poem by Shelley: I met a traveller from an antique land Who said: "Two vast trunkless legs of stone Stand in the desert Near them, on the sand, Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown, And wrinkled lip, a sneer of cold command, Tell that its sculptor well those passions read Which yet survive stamped upon these lifeless things, The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed: And on the pedestal these words appear: "My name is Ozymandias [Ramses], king of kings: Look upon my works ye mighty and despair!" Nothing beside remains, Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away
