AGITA'TRIX. A female who sets any thing in motion; hence, sylvarum agitatrix, a huntress, who beats up the woods and covers (Arnob. iv. p. 141.), particularly applied to Diana, the goddess of the chase; in which character she appears in the illustration (Agitatrix/1.1) from a terra cotta lamp, formerly in the collection of Bartoli.
