From the Lesser Key

The Fourth Spirit is Samigina, a Great Marquis. He appeareth in the form of a little Horse or Ass, and then into Human shape doth he change himself at the Request of the Master. He speaketh with a hoarse voice. He ruleth over 30 Legions of Inferiors. He teaches all Liberal Sciences, and giveth account of Dead Souls that died in sin. And his Seal is this, which is to be worn before the Magician when he is Invocator, etc.

Legions: 30

Rank: Marquis

Notes: Another element of the soul transposition process. Seems to take control of the “aerie bodies” or souls. The mention in discoverie of purgatory is interesting. The idea that Gamigin is perhaps the one who shepherds the worthy souls to purgatory and hands them off to the angels is fascinating. Mentions of The Sea are absent from the other citations. This could mean the literal sea or the abyssal sea. Additionally, I enjoy the idea that he can pluck people from purgatory to temporarily do the bidding of a necromancer. Its exactly the sort of annoying bullshit that demons would find fun. I wonder how he gets from hell to purgatory. Dante certainly seemed to imply that the only way was through the bottom of lake cocytus, but Gamigin seems to imply a second route. Curious indeed.
