Prono

Prono an idol of the ancient Sclavonians, worshipped at Altenburg, in Germany. It was a statue erected on a column, holding in one hand a ploughshare, and in the other a spear and a standard. Its head was crowned, its ears prominent, and under one of its feet was suspended a little bell. Gerold, Christian bishop of Altenburg, destroyed this idol with his own hand, and cut down the grove in which it was worshipped.
