Phoenix (mythology)
The phoenix is an immortal bird associated with Greek mythology (with analogs in many cultures) that cyclically regenerates or is otherwise born again. Associated with the sun, a phoenix obtains new life by rising from the ashes of its predecessor. Some legends say it dies in a show of flames and combustion, others that it simply dies and decomposes before being born again. In the ''Motif-Index of Folk-Literature'', a tool used by folklorists, the phoenix is classified as motif B32.Thompson. (2001: 581). The origin of the phoenix has been attributed to Ancient Egypt by Herodotus and later 19th-century scholars, but other scholars think the Egyptian texts may have been influenced by classical folklore. Over time the phoenix motif spread and gained a variety of new associations; Herodotus, Lucan, Pliny the Elder, Pope Clement I, Lactantius, Ovid, and Isidore of Seville are among those who have contributed to the retelling and transmission of the phoenix motif. Over time, extendin ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Penix (surname)
Penix is a Cornish-language family name (Cornish surnames) originating in Cornwall. In medieval times, people were known by their given names, but as the population grew, surnames were added based on the place that they owned or lived in to distinguish people from one another. While Celtic people tended to use patronymic names, many Cornish people used local place names as surnames, sometimes in addition to patronymics. The name Penix could be derived from a local place name, the family lived in the parish of Saint Pinnock, in Cornwall. Surnames are spelled in many ways, due to lack of spelling rules. Therefore, the name has been spelled Pinoke, Pinnick, Pinnock, Pincock and Pinock in addition to other variations of the name. The word "Pen" in Cornish means "head" or "end".
