Anonym Internetz-rappare rappar följande i låten Antropofagi:
Sällsamt hur samhället satts ur kurs
hur vi käkar små barn som Saturnus
erkänner jag snackar goja/Goya som hänger på Pradomuseet, Madrid
Här refereras förmodligen till Goyas klassiska verk Saturnus äter sin son:
"Saturn Devouring His Son is the name given to a painting by Spanish artist Francisco Goya. According to the traditional interpretation, it depicts the Greek myth of the Titan Cronus (in the title Romanized to Saturn), who, fearing that he would be overthrown by one of his children,[1] ate each one upon their birth. The work is one of the 14 Black Paintings that Goya painted directly onto the walls of his house sometime between 1819 and 1823. It was transferred to canvas after Goya's death and has since been held in the Museo del Prado in Madrid."
Som framgår av Wiki-citatet heter Saturnus Kronos på grekiska:
"In Greek mythology, Cronus, Cronos or Kronos (/ˈkroʊnəs/ or /ˈkroʊnɒs/ from Greek: Κρόνος, Krónos), was the leader and youngest of the first generation of Titans, the divine descendants of Uranus, the sky, and Gaia, the earth. He overthrew his father and ruled during the mythological Golden Age, until he was overthrown by his own son Zeus and imprisoned in Tartarus. According to Plato, the deities Phorcys, Cronus, and Rhea were the eldest children of Oceanus and Tethys."
Titanen Kronos har sedermera fått ge namn åt ett av de mäktigaste havslevande rovdjur någonsin att plaska i en bölja: Kronosaurus!
"Kronosaurus (/ˌkrɒnoʊˈsɔːrəs/ KRON-o-SAWR-əs; meaning "lizard of Kronos") is an extinct genus of short-necked pliosaur. With an estimated length of 9–10.5 metres (30–34 ft), it was among the largest pliosaurs."
(Vissa släktingar till kronosaurus hamnade i Norge, tydligen en vanlig slutdestination för havslevande reptiler. Där blev de kända som predator X, och så småningom plisiosaurus funkei.)
Som en av 2018 års första åtgärder antar Antropofagi-bloggen nu kronosaurus som officiell maskot.
Hurra!
