Given the knowledge of cyclopic humans and animals and their lethal nature, and given the negative way in which the cyclops is portrayed in mythology and in art, it is unusual that six naval ships--four English and two American--were named "Cyclops." However, there are also important positive attributes of the Cyclopes in Greek mythology, which explain the reasons the ships were given this name. One ship, the USS "Cyclops," with 306 men aboard, was lost at sea in the "Bermuda Triangle" in 1918 without a trace and no wreckage has ever been found.
鉴于独眼人类和动物的情况及其致命性，以及独眼巨人在神话和艺术作品中的负面形象，令人惊讶的是，有六艘海军舰艇——四艘英国的和两艘美国的——被命名为“独眼巨人号”。然而，希腊神话中独眼巨人也有重要的正面特质，这解释了这些舰艇被赋予这个名字的原因。其中一艘名为“独眼巨人号”的美国海军舰艇，搭载着306名船员，于1918年在“百慕大三角”海域失踪，踪迹全无，残骸也从未被找到。
