SOCCUS
SOCCUSdim. SO´CCULUS, denoted a slipper or low shoe, which did not fit closely, and was not fastened by any tie (Isid. Orig. 19.33). Shoes of this description (e. g. the πέρσικαι and σιάβαθρον: see CALCEUS) were worn, more especially among the Greeks, together with the PALLIUMboth by men and by women. We find socci viriles et muliebres distinguished in Ed. Diocl. 9, 25: the latter seem to be usually more ornamented (Plin. Nat.37.17; of. Suet. Cal. 52). In the time of the Republic it was considered unbefitting a Roman to wear them (Cic. pro Rab. Post. 10, 27), and classed with wearing the pallium instead of the toga.
As was stated under the article BAXA, the soccus was worn by comic actors (Hor. Ars Poët. 80, 90), and was in this respect opposed to the COTHURNUS(Ov. Rem. Am. 376; Mart. 8.3, 13; Plin. Nat.7.111). The actor of the MIMUSwore neither buskin nor slipper, and was therefore called planipes (Teuffel, § 7; Mayor, ad Juven. 8.191). The preceding woodcut is taken from an ancient painting of a comic actor, who is dancing in loose yellow slippers (luteum soccum, Catull. Epithal. Jul. 10). Cf. Marquardt, Privatleben, 595; Becker-Göll, Gallus, 3.229. [SOLEA]
[J.Y] [G.E.M]Soccus
A loose slipper, or light, low shoe, fitting either foot, which the Romans adopted from the Greeks, among whom it was worn by both sexes. It was the characteristic of comedy, as the cothurnus (q. v.) was of tragedy ( A. P. 80). To wear the soccus off the stage was regarded as un-Roman (Pliny , Pliny H. N. xxxvii. 6).
