The Peryton was created and described by Jorge Luis Borges in his ''Book of Imaginary Beings,'' using a supposedly long-lost medieval manuscript as a source. ==Mythology== The Peryton is said to have the head, neck, forelegs and antlers of a stag, combined with the plumage, wings and hindquarters of a large bird, although some interpretations portray the Peryton as a deer in all but coloration and bird's wings. According to Borges, Perytons lived in Atlantis until an earthquake destroyed the civilization and the creatures escaped by flight. A Peryton casts the shadow of a man until it kills one during its lifetime, at which time it starts to cast its own shadow. A Sibyl once prophesied that the Perytons would lead to the downfall of Rome. In Borges' original Spanish edition, the word is given as ''peritio'' so the presumptive Latin original would be ''peritius,'' which happens to be the Latin name of the fourth month on the ancient Macedonian calendar,〔(Περίτιος )〕 (''Peritios'', moon of January). The connection of this, if any, to the peryton is unclear. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Peryton」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
