Re: Off-topic: The ancient Athenian calendar
Skyros or skiron, meaning "stone debris". (Skyros island was renowned for it's decorative stone.) And the other half is obviously "fornication" just not in the sense of sexuality? Forno, or "FIRE" is where we get "Fornography" (fire writing), better known as passion. ... So simple is; How does one make stones? Answer; Turning clay into brick, and bricks into stone?
Biscuits, biscotti (twice baked) etc.
