Note 189 — Chapter XVI · THE FORM AND TEMPERAMENT OF THE BODY
J. M. Ashmand translation
The original word is (in the accusative plural) αιγοηους, which Allatius has rendered, by “pedibus caprinis,” goat-footed, as if it were compounded of αιξ capra and πους pes; but the preferable derivation seems to be from αιξ and ωψ vultus; meaning “goat-faced.”
