page 166 note 1 For ‘The Table of Mên’, see a forth-coming article by Levick, B. M. in J.H.S. lxxxi (1971)Google Scholar. We hesitate to suggest that some of the κοπταί offered to Mên could have been crescent-shaped or moon-shaped, but there is some evidence that horned and circular cakes were offered to moon gods and goddesses: cf. Poll. vi. 76 and Suda s.v. βοῦς ἕβδομος: πέρατα ἕχοντα κατἐ μίμησιν τῆς πρωτοφαοῦς σελήνης … ὁμοίως δὲ καὶ αἱ σελήναι πέμματα πλατέα κυκλοτερῆ, ἃ καὶ οὕτως ἐκἑλουν.
