Note 513 — Chapter V · SYMBOLISM OF THE MOTHER AND OF REBIRTH
Beatrice M. Hinkle translation
The close connection between δελφίς = Dolphin and δελφύς = uterus is emphasized. In Delphi there is the cavity in the earth and the Tripod δελφινίς = a delphic table with three feet in the form of a Dolphin. See in the last chapter Melicertes upon the Dolphin and the fiery sacrifice of Melkarth.
