First of all this is the only place that I can get any info about
the Greek holidays. But tonight we will be honoring Artemis Agoria,
though this talks a bit different about it. Tonight we also honor
Artemis, which I will be doing. I got this from Baring the Aegis.
In the calendar from Erchia, the hero Epops received two holókaustoi on the fifth of Boedromion. The victims of the two holókaustoi to Epops were piglets and the sacrifices were to be followed by wineless libations designated. Sacrifices to Epops are known only from the Erchia calendar. The mythological context of Epops is not clear, but he was a hero, perhaps linked (by Kallimachos) to the conflict between the city-states Paiania and Erchia.
Enjoy your night.
