👉 Eremes, in Greek mythology, were a group of humans who lived on the island of Crete and were said to have been cursed by the gods. They were known for their arrogance, pride, and disregard for others' opinions or feelings. Eremes were often associated with bad luck and misfortune, as they were considered to be unable to resist death. The term "eremites" is derived from the Greek word "eremos," which means "to curse."
