ekkyklema
An ''ekkyklêma'' (; (ギリシア語:εκκύκλημα); "roll-out machine") was a wheeled platform rolled out through a ''skênê'' in ancient Greek theatre. It was used to bring interior scenes out into the sight of the audience.〔Brockett and Hildy (2003, 30), Csapo and Slater (1994, 61, 270-273, 428), Davidson (2005, 201), Goldhill (2007, 9), Ley (2007, xiv-xv), and Rehm (1992, 37).〕 Some ancient sources suggest that it may have been revolved or turned.〔Brockett and Hildy (2003, 30) and Csapo and Slater (1994, 270-273).〕
It is mainly used in tragedies for revealing dead bodies, such as Hippolytus' dying body in the final scene of Euripides' play of the same name, or the corpse of Eurydice draped over the household altar in Sophocles' ''Antigone''.〔Rehm (1992, 67).〕 Other uses include the revelation in Sophocles' ''Ajax'' of Ajax surrounded by the sheep he killed whilst under the delusion that they were Greeks.〔Rehm (1992, 69).〕 The ''ekkyklêma'' is also used in comedy to parody the tragic effect. An example of this is in Aristophanes' ''Thesmophoriazusae'' when Agathon, portrayed as an effeminate, is wheeled onstage on an ''ekkyklêma'' to enhance the comic absurdity of the scene.
