Epicurius

Epicu'rius

(Ἐπικούριος), the helper, a surname of Apollo, under which he was worshipped at Bassae in Arcadia. Every year a wild boar was sacrificed to him in his temple on mount Lycaeus. He had received this surname because he had at one time delivered the country from a pestilence. (Paus. 8.383.6, 41.5.) [L.S]
