Abstract

The Cornucopia is, literally the horn of plenty. It derives from two Latin words: cornu, meaning horn and copia, meaning plenty. Thus, cornucopia literally means horn of plenty and often filled with fruits, desserts, or other foods. Mythology was a popular theme in ancient art and cornucopia became the attribute of several Greek and Roman dieties like Zeus-Amalthea, Dionysos, Herakles, Hades-Ploutos, Persephone, Demeter. Tykhe and Fortuna were the personification of abundance. There s no difference in usage between full and empty cornucopia. It was depicted in Classical, Hellenistic, Roman and Byzantian art. Keras or dikeras was the symbol of ancient Egypt. Ptolemaic queens played a very important political and religious role during this period. Also this was the attribute of several Ptolemaic queens Arsinoe II, Berenike II and Kleopatra. But dikeras (double cornucopia) was devised by Ptolemaios II as an emblem of Arsinoe II. Later, Greek nymphe Khloris and Roman goddess Flora became the symbol of fertility.

Özet

Bereket boynuzu, Antik Dönemde, bereketin, bolluğun, zenginliğin simgesi olarak kullanılmış- tır. ki Latince kelime olan cornu (boynuz) ve copia (bolluk) birleşiminden oluşmakta ve genellikle içi meyveler, çiçeklerle dolu olarak verilmektedir. Bazen yanlarından kurdeleler sarkar. Mitolojide Zeus-Amalthea, Dionysos, Herakles, Hades-Persephone ile ilişkili konularda karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Antik Dönem sanatında betimlemelerine ilk olarak Klasik Dönemde rastlanmaktadır. M.Ö. IV. yüzyılda tanrılaştırılarak, Bizans Dönemine dek kullanılmaya devam etmiştir. Özellikle Ptolemaios Hanedanlığının etkisiyle, Hellenistik Dönem sanat eserlerinde sıklıkla betimlenmiştir. Ptolemaioslar, tek (keras) ya da çift bereket boynuzunu (dikeras) kendilerine sembol olarak seçmişlerdir. Dikerasın II. Ptolemaios tarafından II. Arsinoe için tasarlandığı düşünülmektedir. Greklerde Tykhe, Romalılarda ise Fortuna şans, bolluk, bereketi simgelemektedir ve genellikle bu mitolojik figürlerin sol ellerinde bereket boynuzu taşır şekilde betimlemeleri yapılmıştır. Greklerde bir nymphe olan Khloris, Roma mparatorluğunda ise şora, çiçeklerin ve bereketin tanrısıdır.
