#cricos

[a-book-of-creatures]

are the circhos (and the other creatures under #scandinavian for that matter) actually part of scandinavian folklore or were they just made up in some fantasy book with norse themes? they are mentioned on the english wikipedia page for scandinavian folklore but i cant find any actual scandinavian references to them. not even the name circhos sounds similar to anything i can think of in any scandinavian language. i know wikipedia is fairly unreliable but still?

*deep breath*

Aristotle (noted ancient Greek egghead) described hermit crabs as living in nerita shells

Michael Scot (medieval translator of Aristotle) translated nerita as kiroket

Thomas de Cantimpré combined the account of the crab and the shells and garbled kiroket into cricos, turning it into a Creature of some sort

The Ortus Sanitatis took the cricos from Albertus Magnus' retelling of Thomas de Cantimpré and made it even more of a monster (it now has a human head and a shark body)

Olaus Magnus took the Ortus Sanitatis account, dropped the human head and dog feet, and now says that it lives in the ocean around Scandinavia

So... at least one person took the end product of a game of telephone that started with a Greek hermit crab and dumped it in Scandinavian waters. Good enough for the Scandinavia tag I guess?

I decided to return to its crustacean origins when I made the drawing for ABC. Besides I like drawing crabs.

#Circhos #Cricos #Crichos Albertus Magnus takes up Thomas’ account, but drops the confusing details of the feet. The Ortus Sanitatis, on the other hand, creates some additional features out of whole cloth. The circhos or crichos has the head of a man and the body of a sea-dog (i.e. a dogfish or shark); it is healthy in good weather, but weakens and turns ill in bad weather. Olaus Magnus borrows the circhos of the Ortus Sanitatis to populate his Scandinavian sea. The physical description of a human-headed fish is wisely redacted. Whether it was meant to represent an actual Scandinavian animal, or is merely plagiarism, remains unclear. It is Olaus Magnus’ account that is best known today. Concept drift in modern retellings have led to fabrications such as a limping gait that forces the circhos to move only in fine weather and cling to rocks during storms, and even a “humanoid” appearance.
