In Greek mythology, Silenus was a companion and tutor to the wine god Dionysus (Bacchus), notorious for his drunkenness. The Papposilenus is a representation of Silenus that emphasizes his old age, particularly as a stock character in satyr play or comedy. (Source: Wikipedia; http://en.wikipedia. org/wiki/Main_Page)
