Embates
These elevated sandals somewhat resemble a clog, and are unique to the comic actors of the Ephebianstage. They are identical to the kothornos worn by tragic actors, save for the wedge cut out of the
front of the sole to recall the cloven hoof of the goat, and the shaggy fur attached to the straps
around the ankle and shin. They sport a raised heel, designed to lift the actor above the crowd,
letting them play different roles using embates of different heights. The shoes also lend actors a
swaggering gait, which many Ephebian women find distinctly... erotic. Given the nature of Ephebian
comedy, this is hardly likely to be unintentional.
