Hmmmm.... Don't s'pose we could make a connection between the hippo (horse) pot (head) amus (somehow
connected to the animus) and see that the hippopotamus was originally believed to be the Spirit of the Horse
Head...mebbe fanned with pinnate leaves?


I like your crackpot way of thinking, WW! Hippo [horse] potamus[river], but, then, a pot does hold a bit of the river, so maybe you're not such a crackpot after all...
