 An epithet of the Eagle. 



Arist. H. A. ix. 32, 618 b. The Eagle in combat with the hare is 

 frequent on gems, and on coins of Agrigentum, Messana, Elis, &c. : cf. 

 Imhoof-Blum. and Keller, passim ; Keller, Th. d. cl. Alterth., p. 449. 

 The wide occurrence of this subject (cf. Layard, Nineveh, ii. pi. 62)
