In Greek mythology the Graeae (; English translation: "old women", "grey ones", or "grey witches"; alternatively spelled Graiai (Γραῖαι) and Graiae), also called the Grey Sisters, were three sisters who shared one eye and one tooth among them. Their names were Deino, Enyo, and Pemphredo. ==Etymology== The word Graeae is probably derived from the adjective γραῖα ''graia'' "old woman", derived from the PIE root '' *ǵerh2-/ *ǵreh2-'', "to grow old" via Proto-Greek '' *gera-/grau-iu''.〔R.
