In Greek mythology, Kydoimos or Cydoemus /sɪˈdməs/ (Ancient Greek: Κυδοιμός Kudoimós) was the personification of the din of battle, confusion, uproar and hubbub.[1][2][3][4] He was probably numbered amongst the Makhai, daimones of the battlefield. Kydoimos appears in Aristophanes' Peace as a character.[5]
