From Wikipedia
In Greek mythology, the Laestrygonians or Laestrygones (Greek: Λαιστρυγόνες) were a tribe of man-eating giants. They were said to have sprung from Laestrygon, son of Poseidon. According to Thucydides (6.2.1.) and Polybius (1.2.9) the Laestrygones inhabited southeast Sicily; Pliny the Elder in the Natural History (7.2) places them "in the very centre of the earth, in Italy and Sicily". The name is akin to that of the Lestriconi, a branch of the Corsi people of the northeast coast of Sardinia (now Gallura).
