Mythology, Classical, in art; Pottery, Ancient; Pottery, Etruscan; Pottery, Greek; Pottery, Roman
Cf. Ar. _Ach._ 933: ψοφεῖ λάλον τι καὶ πυρορραγές. See also Suid.
_s.v._ πυρορραγές; Pollux, vii. 164; _Etym. Magn._ p. 798, 17; and
Schol. _in_ Hom. _Il._ ii. 219. I cannot but think that in the term
φοξός, as applied to Thersites' head, there is some correspondence to
our phrase “crack-brained.” Simonides (_apud_ Athen. xi. 480 D)
speaks of a φοξίχειλος Ἀργείη κύλιξ, a term of disputed meaning; but
a cup of which the brim (χεῖλος) would suggest the shape of a peaked
head is hardly conceivable; and here again there must surely be some
notion of sound.

See Fig. 67 _b_; Berlin 2294; Furtwaengler, in _Jahrbuch_, vi.

Kyklopes or demon-attendants of the fire-god Hephaistos. See above,
p. 105, under πύραυνοι; also Daremberg and Saglio, _art._ Caminus.
