  • From the Ancient Greek 'ἡγεμων' (hēgemṓn), which means leader, this gem's name reflects the confederate and "first among equals" philosophy which shapes Than-Thre-Kull society and its head. To the Greeks, such a one was leader by skill and acknowledgement, rather than their ability in politics or to repress competition in the manner of a "tyrant".
