Vitruvian Swine

---

Porkopolis is a repository of the eternal verities and varieties of swinedom. Here are pigs:

• fanciful and factual
• symbolic and serious
• divine and natural

compiled for those who seek to penetrate the outward appearance of things in order to recover their inward meanings.

Or as Thomas Carlyle might imagine… "Supposing swine (I mean four-footed swine), of sensibility and superior logical parts, had attained such culture; and could, after survey and reflection, jot down for us their notion of the universe, and of their interests and duties there… ." (‘Pig Philosophy,’ Latter-Day Pamphlets, 1850).
