How many cyclops were on Earth?

In Greek mythology, cyclopes were one-eyed giants, and there are varying accounts of their numbers. The most famous cyclopes are the three siblings: Polyphemus, Brontes, and Steropes, who were said to have lived on Earth. Additionally, Homer mentions a race of cyclopes in his epic poems, suggesting that there were many, but specific numbers are not provided. Thus, the exact number of cyclopes on Earth remains ambiguous and is subject to mythological interpretation.
