	Agdistis
		Agdistis was chaotic, neither good nor evil, but impossible to control, containing all of the powers of creation within his/her body and using these powers to wreak havoc.
		In the first, Zeus raped the goddess Cybele after she disguised herself as a rock, and Agdistis was conceived.
		In the second, Agdistis was born when Zeus dropped his semen upon the ground in his excitement over an unknown goddess that resisted his attentions, causing a rock or a mountain to become pregnant with Agdistis.

	AGDISTIS : Phrygian hermaphrodite goddess ; mythology
		AGDISTIS was a hermaphroditic creature born of Gaia (Earth) when she was accidentally impregnated by the sleeping sky-god Zeus.
		But at the moment when the hymeneal song had commenced, Agdistis appeared, and Attes was seized by a fit of madness, in which he unmanned himself; the king who had given him his daughter did the same.
		Agdistis now repented her deed, and obtained from Zeus the promise that the body of Attes should not become decomposed or disappear.
