- of Tartaros
Meaning
The Titans inhabit Tartarean dwellings in Earth's recess (XXXVII.3); Plouton's opening landscape includes a deeply shaded Tartarean meadow (XVIII.2). The adjective locates or characterizes a place through Tartaros. Its meadow and dwelling settings are more specific than a single generic translation such as infernal.
