a Grecian dance, so called from the name of its inventor, one of the satyrs belonging to Bacchus. It consisted of a combination of grave and gay movements.

CYCLADES INSULAE; islands anciently so called, as Pliny informs us, from the Cyclos or orb in which they lie; beginning from the promontory Geractium of Enboca, and lying round the island Delos (Pliny).

Where they are, and what their number, is not so generally agreed. Strabo says, they were at first reckoned 12, but that many others were added; yet most of them lie to the south of Delos, and but few to the north, so that the middle or centre, ascribed to Delos, is to be taken in a loose, not a geometrical sense. Strabo recites them after Artemidorus, as follows: Helena, Ccos, Cythus, Seriphus, Melus, Siphus, Cimolus, Prepefinthus, Olearus, Naxus, Parus, Syros, Myconus, Tenus, Andrus, Gyarus; but he excludes from the number, Prepefinthus, Olearus, and Gyarus.
