To a late period an effort was made to distinguish them: nec miretur (puer), cur ... fiat a pinno quod est acutum, securis utrimque habens aciem bipennis, ne illorum sequatur errorem, qui, quia a pennis duabus hoc esse nomen existimant, pennas avium dici volunt,Quint. 1, 4, 12 Halm: pinnum enim antiqui acutum dicebant,Isid.
