His Roman equivalent is Mendacius. There are even some stories of Dolos tricking gods into lies. - from an encyclopedia.
Dolos
When you need a different name
For an unpleasant thing,
Here he is.
He pretends to be tactful,
But in fact he's a liar.
His game of words
Can lead to terrible
Circumstances,
But people turn to his help
As they're weak.
