EtymologyEdit

Ultimately from Ancient Greek μόνοικος (mónoikos, single house), from μόνος (mónos, single, alone) + οἶκος (oîkos, house), the name of the 6th century BC colony of Phocaeans and an epithet of Heracles (Hercules), Ἡρακλῆς Μόνοικος (Heracles Monoikos). According to an ancient Greek myth and a Ligurian legend, Heracles passed through the Monaco area. A temple was constructed there by Phocaeans, the temple of Heracles Monoikos (Strabo, Geography, Gaul, 4.6.3).
