Fighting or combat between roosters, especially cockfighting, or any battle involving roosters in mythology or literature.
From Greek 'alektryon' (rooster) plus 'machia' (battle, fighting), creating a compound meaning rooster-battle.
Cockfighting is ancient—Greeks and Romans were obsessed with it, and the word 'alectoromachy' shows how classical languages had specific terms for this brutal sport, embedding it in high culture.
