What is the creature with one hundred heads in mythology?

The Hecatonchires were born of Gaia and Uranus. They were stronger, more overbearing, and more fierce than even the mighty Cyclopes. They had 100 arms and 50 heads each. This is a close as I have got. The hydra is known to have as many heads as it grows. Although they are often depicted in pottery as having three heads, that is only because no potter turning out numerous pots in a day wishes to paint a hundred heads when three would get the point across. The hecatonchires are more known for their hundred hands, as that is what their name means: hecaton - hundred chires - hands (think, "chiropractor" - one who heals with hands)
