No - amphi means 'around', amphiktiones means 'people living near, neighbours',Is she the namesake of the "amphora"?
So, basically, she is the patroness of getting together and drinking.No - amphi means 'around', amphiktiones means 'people living near, neighbours',
and that was probably the meaning of the Amphiktyonic league.
The goddess's name is really a title for Demeter as the tutelary goddess of that alliance,
and especially of their get-togethers, that seem to have been both religious rites and boozy parties,
when amphorae were no doubt emptied in profusion - but I don't think the word's related.
PS just checked on that - amphora means literally 'two-eared', a nice name
for a two-handled wine flagon!
We can only guess... maybe the title below, "Transmigration" refer to some kind of transformation into animal form... it is a fantasy I have, do you know the movie "Cat People"? ...Thank You George. A wonderful set. I wonder in #3 whether the tiger wants to eat her to to perform some beastiality?
So Much to say.
I'm not sure, but I like it!Is this the same genre?
