PLA'NIPES. An actor who played a part in a species of low farce, termed a mime (mimus), and who received that designation because he came upon the stage with naked feet, without either the cothurnus or soccus, planis pedibus, i. e. non arte exaltatis. (Diomed. iii. 487. Aul. Gell. i. 11. 7. Macrob. Sat. ii. 1.) The illustration (Planipes/1.1) is from an engraved gem.
