Translation for "thesmophoria" to finnish
Translation examples
Thomson further suggests the possibility that as Oresteia's ending dramatizes the establishment of the court of Areopagus, the Danaid plays may have ended by dramatizing the establishment of the festival of the Thesmophoria, a festival reserved for women which was based on the cult of Demeter which, according to Herodotus, was brought to Greece from Egypt by the Danaids.
Lisäksi samoin kuin Oresteian loppu esittää Areiopagin instituution perustamisen draamallisessa muodossa, danaideista kertova trilogia olisi esittänyt naisille varatun Thesmoforia-juhlan perustamisen; Herodotoksen mukaan danaidit toivat tämän juhlan Egyptistä Kreikkaan.
