Etymology

Gamigin is the name of the fourth demonic entity described in the Lesser Key of Solomon. It is a marquis of hell that initially appears as a small horse that transforms into a hoarse-voiced man shortly after being summoned. In Alister Crowley's personal translation of the tome, the demon's name is spelled as Samigina and thus this alternate name was granted to Gamigin's pallet swap.
