Lips (or Livas, or Garbis, or southwestern wind) blows to Attica from the isthmus of Corinthos. According to Herodotus (Π, 25) he is the wind that blows from Libya which he got his name of (Livas). He is pictured as a strong and healthy man with shaven face and short hair. In his hands he holds the end of a ship’s stern, “το άφλαστον”, symbolizing that the SW wind is favourable for the ships to reach the port of Piraeus. Studiers however speculate, that the part of the stern that Livas holds, is like the one that the statue of Apollo in Delphi was holding (The Greeks after the win in the naval battle of Salamis had devoted in Delphi a statue of Apollo , that was holding a “άφλαστον” symbolizing the drifted and destroyed Persian ships from the wind Livas – Herodotus VII, 121).
