Note 995 — Chapter XXXVII · THE FIGHT BETWEEN MARDUK AND TIĀMAT
Reading edition
Similarly in the Gigantomachy as figured on the Siphnian Treasury at Delphi, Æolus, god of the winds, helps the deities against the giants by deflating two bags of wind. He is represented by an Ionian sculptor as working his wind-bags with all the concentration of a Hun working his machine-gun. See G. Perrot—C. Chipiez, Histoire de l’Art dans l’antiquité (Paris, 1903), VIII. 368 and 375, fig. 172.
