Apemius information

Apemius (Ancient Greek: Ἀπήμιος) or Apemios was an epithet of the god Zeus in Greek mythology, which meant "averter of ills".^[1] Under this name Zeus had an altar on Mount Parnes in Attica,^[2] on which sacrifices were offered to him.^[3]

There is also a mountain at Hymettus with shrines to Zeus that some scholars considered to be connected to his worship as Apemius.^[4]^[5]
