A dictionary of Greek and Roman antiquities.. . we most frequently find theheads of females covered with a kind of band or acoif of net-work. Of these coiffures one was calledacpevfiovri, which was a broad band across the fore-head, sometimes made of metal, and sometimes ofleather, adorned with gold: to this the name of(TTKeyyis was also given, and it appears to havebeen much the same as the &[iirv]- (Pollux, vii.179 ; Bottiger, Vasengemdlde, iii. p. 225 ; Ampyx).But the most common kind of head-dress forfemales was called by the general name of /ce/cpu-(paos, and this was divided into the three speciesof KeKpv(paos, aaKKos, and /xirpa. The KSKpu-(paos, in its narrower sense, was a caul or coif ofnet-work, corresponding to the Latin reticulum. Itwas worn during the day as well as the night, andhas continued in use from the most ancient timesto the present day. It is mentioned by Homer(77. xxii. 469), and is still worn in Italy andSpain. These hair-nets were frequently made ofgold-threads (Juv. ii. 96 ; Petron. 67), sometimes. COMA. 329 of silk (Salmas. Eocerc. ad Solin. p. 392), or theElean byssus (Paus. vii. 21. § 7), and probablyof other materials, which are not mentioned byancient writers. The persons who made thesenets were called KenpvepaXoirXoKoi (Pollux, vii.179). Females with this kind of head-dress fre-quently occur in paintings found at Pompeii, fromone of which the preceding cut is taken, represent-ing a woman wearing a Coa Vestis. [CoAVestis.] (Maseo Borbon. vol. viii. p. 5.) The o~o.kk.os and the jxnpa were, on the con-trary, made of close materials. The oolkkos coveredthe head entirely like a sack or bag ; it was madeof various materials, such as silk, byssus, andwool. (Comp. Aristoph. Thesm. 257.) Some-times, at least among the Romans, a bladder wasused to answer the same purpose. (Mart. viii. 33.19.) The jxirpa was a broad band of cloth ofdifferent colours, which was woimd round thehair, and was worn in various ways. It wasoriginally an Eastern h
