Forms: 1600s Anadiomene, 1600s 1800s– Anadyomene. Also with lower-case initial.

Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin Anadyomenē.

Etymology: < classical Latin Anadyomenē (Pliny) < Hellenistic Greek ἀναδυομένη , feminine present participle of ancient Greek ἀναδύεσθαι to rise from the sea < ἀνα- ana- prefix + δύεσθαι , medio-passive of δύειν to go into (see dytiscid adj. and n.).

A. adj.

Usually used postpositively. As an epithet of the goddess Venus (Aphrodite), as originally depicted in a famous painting by the Greek artist Apelles: emerging from the sea. Hence later in allusive use.
