I am trying to come up with a list of names which were applied to the Epicureans either by themselves or others. So far I have:
- The Garden
- The Twentiers (or some variation referring to the 20th
- Hogs In Epicurus' herd (from Horace)
- ..."The joyous choir" (on the funeral inscription, noted below
- Epicurus himself was referred to as "The Garghettian" by Cicero so maybe they also applied that to the group.
Are you aware of any others?
