a name of Juno, from the Argivi, among whom the sacrifices called Heraia were celebrated in her honor. They made her image in gold and ivory, holding a pomegranate in one hand, and in the other a sceptre, upon the top of which stood a cuckoo, because Jupiter changed himself into that bird when he fell in love with her.
