[1083] Antigonus, _Histor. mirab._ 15 (_Scriptores rerum mirabilium Graeci_, ed. A. Westermann, pp. 64 _sq._). Antigonus mentions that the badge of the city was a representation of the chariot with a couple of ravens perched on it. This badge appears on existing coins of Crannon, with the addition of a pitcher resting on the chariot (B. V. Head, _Historia Numorum_, p. 249). Hence A. Furtwängler conjectured, with great probability, that a pitcher full of water was placed on the real chariot when rain was wanted, and that the spilling of the water, as the chariot shook, was intended to imitate a shower of rain. See A. Furtwängler, _Meisterwerke der griechischen Plastik_, pp. 257–263.

Staveren, pp. 769 _sq._ It has been suggested that the stone derived its name and its virtue from the _manes_ or spirits of the dead (E. Hoffmann, in _Rheinisches Museum für Philologie_, N.F. l. (1895), pp. 484–486). Mr. O. Gilbert supposes that the stone was hollow and filled with water which was poured out in imitation of rain. See O. Gilbert, _Geschichte und Topographie der Stadt Rom im Altertum_, ii. (Leipsic, 1885) p. 154 note. His suggestion is thus exactly parallel to that of Furtwängler as to the pitcher at Crannon (above, p. 309 note 6). Compare W. Warde Fowler, _Roman Festivals of the Period of the Republic_ (London, 1899), pp. 232 _sq._

[1087] Nonius Marcellus, _s.v. aquilex_, p. 69, ed. Quicherat. In favour of taking _aquilex_ as rain-maker is the use of _aquaelicium_ in the sense of rain-making. Compare K. O. Müller, _Die Etrusker_, ed. W. Deecke, ii. 318 _sq._

[1088] Diodorus Siculus, v. 55.

[1089] Philochorus, cited by Athenaeus, xiv. 72, p. 656 A.

[1090] Among the Barotse, on the upper Zambesi, “the sorcerers or witch-doctors go from village to village with remedies which they cook in great cauldrons to make rain” (A. Bertrand, _The Kingdom of the Barotsi_, London, 1899, p. 277).

[1091] Phylarchus, cited by Athenaeus, xv. 48, p. 693 E F. If the conjectural reading τοῖς Ἐμεσηνοῖς were adopted in place of the manuscript reading τοῖς Ἕλλησιν, we should have to suppose that the custom was not observed by the Greeks, but by the people of Emesa in Syria, where there was a famous worship of the sun. But Polemo, the highest authority in such matters, tells us that the Athenians offered “sober” sacrifices to the sun and to other deities (Schol. on Sophocles, _Oed. Colon_, 100); and in a Greek inscription found at Piraeus we read of offerings to the sun and of three “sober altars,” by which no doubt are meant altars on which wine was not poured. See Ch. Michel, _Recueil d’inscriptions grecques_, No. 672; Dittenberger, _Sylloge inscriptionum Graecorum_,² No. 631; E. S. Roberts, _Introduction to Greek Epigraphy_, ii. No. 133; _Leges Graecorum sacrae_, ed. J. de Prott et L. Ziehen, ii. No. 18. In the passage of Athenaeus, accordingly, the reading τοῖς Ἐμεσηνοῖς, which has been rashly adopted by the latest editor of Athenaeus (G. Kaibel), may be safely rejected in favour of the manuscript reading.
