Aquelarre
''Akelarre'' is the Basque term meaning Witches' Sabbath (the place where witches hold their meetings). ''Akerra'' means male goat in the Basque language. Witches' sabbaths were envisioned as presided over by a goat. The word has been loaned to Castilian Spanish (which uses the spelling ''Aquelarre''). It has been used in Castilian Spanish since the witch trials of the 17th century. The word is most famous as the title of the witchcraft painting by Goya in the Museo del Prado, which depicts witches in the company of a huge male goat. Etymology The most common etymology proposed is that meaning meadow (''larre'') of the male goat (''aker'' "buck, billy goat"). The Spanish Inquisition accused people of worshipping a black goat, related to the worship of Satan. An alternative explanation could be that it originally was ''alkelarre'', ''alka'' being a local name for the herb '' Dactylis hispanica''. In this case, the first etymology would have been a manipulation of the Inquis ...
