Koalemos: The god of stupidity

Koalemos: The god of stupidity

In Greek mythology, Koalemos (Ancient Greek: Κοάλεμος) was the god of stupidity, mentioned once by Aristophanes, and being found also in Parallel Lives by Plutarch. Coalemus is the Latin spelling of the name. Sometimes it is referred to as a dæmon, more of a spirit and minor deity.

 

Otherwise, the word κοάλεμος was used in the sense of “stupid person” or also “blockhead”.
