The Greek scholar Strabo visited Hierapolis in the first century BCE, and wrote about the frightening properties of its Ploutonion in his Geographica:

“the Ploutonion… is an opening large enough to admit a man, but it reaches a considerable depth…”

We are excited to introduce GeoGraphica! Our new article type that puts maps and visual storytelling at the center. Since "The Netherlands in Maps" ended in 2016, we’ve lacked a home for cartographic creativity. GeoGraphica brings it back. Geography, seen as well as read. More coming soon!

Gotta be this, final answer, Regis
answer. However, a 2013 paper by Egizia Maria Felice, Professor of Classics at the University of Reading, argued that the word for lantern (Ancient Greek: Aúxvos) also refers to an edible species of fish (albeit different from a modern lanternfish), as attested in Strabo's Geographica.! The humor is therefore a play on words about the meaning of Aúxvos, where the scholar orders one at a silversmith's the same way he'd order one at a fishmonger's.

Being busy as an academic back then. Sitting in your working spacing (here it's the Initial "G"), wearing your thinking hat, doing scientific stuff with instruments (he's measuring), and forgetting the world outside (in this case a page in Latin about geography). The year is 1523. #academicchatter
The initial "G" on a print from 1532. A man sitting in the G and is working with a geographical instrument. This is a detail from "Introductio Geographica Petri Apiani" (Augsburg, Staats- und Stadtbibliothek, 2 LR 18#(Beibd. 2)
