In Greek mythology, Pallas (Πάλλας) was the son of Lycaon and founder of the Arcadian town of Pallantion. He was the teacher of Athena, yet also the father of Chryse, two manifestations of Athena.
Pallas was also said to have been Athena's good friend, whom she killed by accident while throwing spears. Sometimes Athena is referred to "Pallas Athena", as a reminder that mortals are no match for a goddess' strength.
