Headword:
*fasianoi/
Adler number: phi,125
Translated headword: pheasants
Vetting Status: high
Translation: [Meaning] cocks, and certain [sc. other] birds.[1]
Aristophanes [writes]: "[even] if you might give me the pheasants, those which Leogoras raises."[2] In reference to those denying in some matter. But pheasants are not [breeds of] horses, but cocks. But some are horses, branded with cocks. So it is these he is speaking of. And Leogoras [is] a proper name, [that] of one of the politicians in
Athens at that time; this man was the father of
Andocides the orator.[3] But [it is] unclear, if Leogoras also raised birds. But some say that 'pheasants' are [breeds of] horses. And if this is not spoken falsely, this would be related to the young man's [sc. Pheidippides'] eagerness. But
Archilochus and others [sc. say that 'pheasants' are] a type of bird.[4] And Leogoras [is] some gourmet, [sc. of whom]
Plato says: "O divine Morycus, for you are by nature a happy man, and Glaucetes, the flatfish, and Leogoras, you all live pleasantly, thinking about nothing."[5] And
Eupolis in
Autolykos [writes] that because of Myrrina, a courtesan, he squandered his property.[6] But horses having [the brand of a] pheasant on the thigh are
fasianoi\. But Phasis [is] a Scythian river, where there are fine horses.[7]
But a
phasis [is] also a laying of information, a report.[8]
And it declines
fa/sios.[9]
It is a
phasis which someone makes against him who seems to be excavating under a public mine or place or household or any other public property. Furthermore, those accusing the guardians of orphans before the archons, [claiming] that they did not lease out the orphan's house as they ought, are said to be making a
prophasis.[10]
