Hi, All,
Uhh, Bob?  The Aristophanes famous for the Greek comedies wasn't alive in
2400 B.C.  For that matter, Greece was a rather barbarous area inhabited by
very different people than the Greeks of the Silver Age.
 
Did I misunderstand your posting about ferret references in Aristophanes
plays, or did you simply mean 2400 years ago, rather than 2400 B.C.?  I
don't remember any references, but it is a couple years since I've read any
of these plays.
 
Maybe this was one of the 5000 fake references?
 
     Paul
