- all-subduer
Meaning
Aither, Physis, the Mother and Hephaistos each receive this title, so the capacity to overcome all is not restricted to one divine figure. At X.3 Physis is both all-subduing and herself unsubdued. The form πανδαμάτορ is vocative; πανδαμάτωρ can also stand in direct address, including to a goddess.
