What is the Latin word for 'puppet'?

Question

Nominative declension please. Any similar words would also be helpful.

Answer 1

"Pupa" is doll. For "puppet", it seems like the Greek word "Neurospasta" was often used. However, when Horace writes "you are moved like a wooden puppet by wires that others pull" he uses the words "duceris ut nervis alienis mobile lignum". In my dictionary, "mobile lignum" = "wooden doll with mobile limbs". So "nervis mobile lignum" is a puppet on strings.

Smith & Hall English-Latin dictionary says: "Puppet: 1. Pupa (a doll) 2. neurospasta, on, n.pl. (i.e. figures pulled by strings): comp. Gell. 14,1, ut plane homines non, quod dicitur .... sed ludicra et ridenda quaedam neurospasta esse videantur ..."
