Several of the crystalline features are present on Gigalith's face; three being below its eyes, one, in the middle, forming some kind of crest, and the other crystals to the sides of its head.

Name origin
Gigalith and Gigaiath may be a combination of gigas (Greek for giant, used to describe a race of earth-born giants in Greek mythology) and lithos (Greek for stone). It could also derive from Goliath. Additionally, Gigaiath may involve Gaia, the Greek goddess personifying the earth.
