About: Inuus

An Entity of Type: person, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

In ancient Roman religion, Inuus (Classical Latin: [ˈɪnuʊs]) was a god, or aspect of a god, who embodied sexual intercourse. The evidence for him as a distinct entity is scant. Maurus Servius Honoratus wrote that Inuus is an epithet of Faunus (Greek Pan), named from his habit of intercourse with animals, based on the etymology of ineundum, "a going in, penetration," from inire, "to enter" in the sexual sense. Other names for the god were Fatuus and Fatuclus (with a short a).

  • In ancient Roman religion, Inuus (Classical Latin: [ˈɪnuʊs]) was a god, or aspect of a god, who embodied sexual intercourse. The evidence for him as a distinct entity is scant. Maurus Servius Honoratus wrote that Inuus is an epithet of Faunus (Greek Pan), named from his habit of intercourse with animals, based on the etymology of ineundum, "a going in, penetration," from inire, "to enter" in the sexual sense. Other names for the god were Fatuus and Fatuclus (with a short a). Walter Friedrich Otto disputed the traditional etymology and derived Inuus instead from in-avos, "friendly, beneficial" (cf. aveo, "to be eager for, desire"), for the god's fructifying power. (en)
  • Dans la mythologie romaine, Inuus (du latin inire, « pénétrer ») est le dieu fécondateur des troupeaux et, par extension, des hommes. D'origine sabine, il est a rapprocher du dieu Pan Lycaeus et de Faunus. Il était fêté lors des Lupercales en même temps que ceux-ci. On le trouve aussi parfois sous la dénomination de Tutunus ou Mutunus qui le rapprocherait alors de Priape. En 1812, le naturaliste Étienne Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire décrit le genre Inuus pour les macaques, par allusion à la mythologie antique. Ce taxon est considéré comme un synonyme plus récent de Macaca, Lacépède, 1799. * Portail de la mythologie romaine (fr)

  • Ínuo (em latim: Inuus), na mitologia romana foi um antigo protetor dos rebanhos, um dos di indigetes. Ele foi provavelmente um deus da fertilidade ou das relações sexuais, e alguns autores acreditam que seu nome está associado à palavra latina inire - copular. Tito Lívio informa que originalmente era o deus ligado às lupercais. Era, ainda, associado ao deus romano Fauno. (pt)
