The Publius Enigma is a mystery involving a riddle proposed in connection with the 1994 Pink Floyd album The Division Bell. It originated on the Internet as a Web-based contest, implemented presumably as a promotion for the album and its tour. It remains unclear whether or not the enigma is a genuinely solvable puzzle, as certain details regarding the actual nature of the challenge have never been revealed. The consensus is that it was eventually abandoned by its creators, and the matter has not been brought to an official conclusion.

Famous quotes containing the word enigma:
“His moving impulse is no flabby yearning to teach, to expound, to make simple; it is that “obscure inner necessity” of which Conrad tells us, the irresistible creative passion of a genuine artist, standing spell-bound before the impenetrable enigma that is life, enamoured by the strange beauty that plays over its sordidness, challenged to a wondering and half-terrified sort of representation of what passes understanding.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
