#structural myth

• Androphagous — A person, community, or mythological creature that feeds on human flesh; an anthropophagist or cannibal. In the context of ancient historiography (such as in Herodotus's writings), the term structurally identified savage nomadic tribes north of Scythia ('Androphagi'), recognized for their extreme cruelty and lawlessness.
• Androgeus — The adapted Romanian form for the name of the mythological character Androgeos, son of the Cretan King Minos, famous for his exceptional athletic skills. His violent death in Athens represented the structural catalyst for Minos's military campaigns and the establishment of the legendary human tribute imposed on the Athenians.
• Andromache — A famous heroine in Greek mythology, daughter of King Eetion of Cilician Thebe and the devoted wife of Hector, prince of Troy. In a literary and structural context, her figure (immortalized by Homer in the Iliad and by Jean Racine in his famous tragedy) embodies the classical ideal of feminine dignity, marital fidelity, and profound maternal suffering in the face of war.
• Andromacha — A Latin graphic base form or old literary variant for Andromaca (historically spelled Andromacha), representing the name of the devoted wife of the Trojan hero Hector. In the context of medieval classical manuscripts and epic poems written in Latin, this structural onomastic entity is used to evoke the archetype of maternal suffering, dignity, and absolute marital fidelity.
• Arduina — A graphic variant or proper mythological name designating Arduinna, the Celtic deity protecting the forests, hunting, and wildlife of the Ardennes mountainous region. Structurally and iconographically, she was depicted in antiquity as a young warrior armed with a bow, often riding a sacred wild boar, later assimilated into the Gallo-Roman pantheon with the goddess Diana.
• Attis — A Phrygian deity of vegetation, rebirth of nature, and consort of the mother goddess Cybele, famous in mythology for his tragic death and structural transformation into a pine tree. His mystery cult, later adopted into the Roman Empire, celebrated the annual cycle of death and resurrection through orgiastic rituals and initiation ceremonies deeply linked to earth regeneration.
