Megara from Disney's Hercules. "I Could See Through That in a Pelopenesian Minute."
Incidentally, Megara is the name of a city in Attica, key in the Pelopenesian war.
Megara the city "claim(s) the credit of producing the first comedy," (from Louis Lord's Aristophanes; His Plays and His Influence.)
Lord claims "the comedy of Athens was born of these two elements, the phallic songs of fertility and the Dorian mime, whose introduction made the plot possible."
Fun, huh?
