Menander, Monostichoi, 138

English (Autenrieth)

Phrygia, a district in Asia Minor, lying partly on the Hellespont, partly on the river Sangarius, Il. 24.545, Il. 3.401, Il. 16.719, Il. 18.291. (Greek art is indebted to the Phrygian costume for the pointed cap, which is an attribute of skilled artisans like Hephaestus, and of shrewd wanderers like Odysseus. The cut, from a Greek relief, represents a Phrygian archer.)
