Nom commun
[modifier le wikicode]Amazonomachy \Prononciation ?\
- Amazonomachie.
The Attic war, like Heracles’ ravaging of Hyppolita and her band during the Ninth Labour, is part of the wider Amazonomachy, yet another -machy, yet another taming of the wild in which the Greeks characterised themselves as ridding the world of the most barbarous, monstrous and uncivilised elements that threatened, like encroaching swarns, their sense of harmony and the potential graces of ordered civilisation.
