In ancient Greek mythology Briareus was one of three giant brothers who had 50 heads and 100 arms. They were considered to be the personifications of storm winds. At the time of the birth of Briareus and his brothers, Uranus their father was the supreme god of the cosmos, but he was afraid of his giant sons. Fearful that he might be overthrown, Uranus imprisoned these Hecatoncheires, as they were called, into Tartarus. The tree is completely hollow yet still alive and standing strong, that was what drew Hjorth-Johansen to this magnificent tree.
