[626] I cannot of course absolutely affirm that the word is extinct in every dialect even now; but the only suggestion of its use which I can find is in a story of Hahn’s collection (_Alban. und Griech. Märch._ II. 189), where the German translation has the strange word ‘Wolfsmann.’ [627] _Pyth._ III. 1-4. [628] _Ibid._ IV. 115. [629] _Ibid._ IV. 119. [630] _Ibid._ III. 45. [631] _Pyth._ II. 29.

[655] Hesiod, _Shield of Heracles_, 178 ff. Cf. also the names Ἄγριος and Ἔλατος (suggesting ἐλάτη, the fir-tree from which their weapons were made) in Apollodor. II. 5. 4. The name Ἄσβολος in Hesiod, meaning ‘soot,’ I cannot interpret; for it is hard to suppose that the ancient Centaurs, like the Callicantzari, came down the chimney. But the word is possibly corrupt; for Ovid (_Met._ XII. 307) refers to an augur Astylus among the Centaurs. [656] Cf. Miss J. Harrison, _Prolegomena to the Study of Greek Religion_, pp. 383-4.

[660] Stories of their coming to cook frogs etc. at the hearths of men occur, but only confirm the general belief that they have no fires of their own at which to cook, and are in general afraid of fire. [661] Πολίτης, Παραδόσεις, II. pp. 1297 and 1337. [662] The shift of accent is due to the synizesis of the syllables -ει-α, pronounced now as -yá. [663] Du Cange, s.v. στοιχεῖον.
