A petasos or petasus ((ギリシア語:πέτασος)) is a sun hat of Thessalian origin worn by the ancient Greeks, often in combination with the chlamys cape. It was usually made of wool felt, leather or straw, with a broad, floppy brim. It was worn primarily by farmers and travellers, and was considered characteristic of rural people. As a winged hat, it became the symbol of Hermes, the Greek mythological messenger god (Roman equivalent Mercury). A type of metal helmet worn by Athenian cavalry was made in the shape of a ''petasos''. Some examples have holes around the outer edge of the brim, presumably so a fabric cover could be attached. These are known from reliefs and vase paintings, with at least one archaeological example found in an Athenian tomb.〔Nicholas Sekunda, ''The Ancient Greeks'' (Osprey Publishing, 1986, 2005), p. 19.〕 ==Gallery== File:Achilles embassy Louvre G264 n3.jpg|Hermes wearing ''petasos'' with caduceus Image:Petasos.jpg|Views of a ''petasos'' File:Youth leopard skin Staatliche Antikensammlungen 2639.jpg|''Petasos''-wearing youth with spear and leopardskin File:Tomb scene Petit Palais ADUT00355 n2.jpg|Cavalryman with ''petasos'' dangling over the back 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「Petasos」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
