翻訳と辞書　辞書検索 [ 開発暫定版 ] スポンサード リンク Were-jaguar ： ウィキペディア英語版 Were-jaguar The were-jaguar was both an Olmec motif and a supernatural entity, perhaps a deity. The were-jaguar motif is characterized by almond-shaped eyes, a downturned open mouth, and a cleft head.〔Coe (1968), p. 42. Diehl, p. 104.〕 It appears widely in the Olmec archaeological record, and in many cases, under the principle of ''pars pro toto'', the were-jaguar motif represents the were-jaguar supernatural.〔''Pars pro toto'' means that a part represents the whole. This principle is common in Olmec art (See, among others, Joralemon, p. 51).〕 The were-jaguar supernatural incorporates the were-jaguar motif as well as other features, although various academics define the were-jaguar supernatural differently. The were-jaguar supernatural was once considered to be the primary deity of the Olmec culture but is now thought to be only one of many.〔See, among others, Miller & Taube, p. 103.〕 Originally, many scholars believed that the were-jaguar was tied to a myth concerning a copulation between a jaguar and a woman. Although this hypothesis is still recognized as viable by many researchers, other explanations for the were-jaguar motif have since been put forward, several questioning whether the motif actually represents a jaguar at all. The term is derived from Old English ''were'', meaning "man", and jaguar, a large member of the cat family in the Olmec heartland, on analogy with werewolf. ==Description== 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「Were-jaguar」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.
