− | The Salamander's bulky build, wide and close to the ground, with a thick neck and stubby legs designed for stomping through rocks and desert sand, resembles well a [[Wikipedia:Gila Monster|Gila Monster]], and more distantly, a Salamander, with a slender neck and delicate feet designed to scuttle through damp leaves. |

− | Real Life Salamanders' "permeable skin usually makes them reliant on habitats in or near water or other cool, damp places" - Wikipedia. Thus they make their homes in a variety of habitats including the inside of rotting logs. When ancient humans would place such a log on the fire, the Salamanders would flee, seemingly emerging from the flames. The more gullible of these humans could easily be convinced by the more clever of tall tales of Fire Spirits, and thus the Salamander ironically became, not a symbol of the cool and the damp, but of heat and fire. The Gila Monster, which lives in the hot arid desert, is a clever piece of imagery that updates and completes the metaphor. |
