TO THE MEMORY OF
THOMAS DAY SEYMOUR
PREFACE The aim of this work is to fnrnish in concise form the essential material for an introductory study of the Greek dialects. Hitherto there has been no single volume intended to fulfill the requirements of college and graduate students who wish to gain a first-hand knowledge of Greek dialects, whether for a better understanding of historical Greek grammar, or for a greater appreciation of the variety of speech in the Greek world, only half suspected from the few dialects employed in literature, or as a substantial foundation for a critical
study of these literary
dialects, or
merely for the ability to
handle intelligently the numerous dialect inscriptions which are important in the investigation of Greek institutions. It is
now more than
ten years since the author formed the plan
of publishing a brief collection of
Greek
dialect inscriptions with
explanatory notes for the use of students, and made a selection for this purpose.
rum (2d
At
that time Cauer's Delectus inscriptionum Graeca^
ed. 1883),
which proved useful for many
years,
had already
ceased to be a representative collection of dialect inscriptions.
In
the case of several dialects the material there given was quite over-
shadowed in importance by the discoveries of recent years. In the meantime this situation has been relieved by the publication of Solmsen's Inscriptiones Graecae ad inlustrandas dialectos selectae. But another need, which it was equally a part of the plan to supply, namely of more explanatory matter for the assistance of beginners in the subject, has remained unfilled up to the present time, though here again in the meantime a book has been announced as in preparation (Thumb's Handbuch der griechischen Dialekte) which presumably aims to serve the same purpose as the present one. With regard to the explanatory matter, the first plan was to accompany the inscriptions not only by exegetical, but also by rather full grammatical notes, with references to the grammars where the

peculiarity in question -was treated as a whole.
But
tlie
desire to
include all that was most essential to the student in this single volume led to the expansion of the introduction into a concise " Gram-
and the author has come to believe that this prove to be the most useful part of the work. Without it the student would be forced at every turn to consult either the larger

may
Greek Grammars, where, naturally, the dialectic peculiarities are not sifted out from the discussion of the usual literary forms, or else the various grammars of special dialects. For, since Ahrens, the works devoted to the Greek dialects, aside from discussions of special topics, have consisted in separate grammars of a single dialect or, at the most, of a single group of dialects. Some of the advantages which this latter method undoubtedly possesses we have aimed to preserve by means of the Summaries (pp. 129-153).
Highly important as are the dialects for the comparative study Greek language, this Grammar is distinctly not intended as a manual of comparative Greek grammar. It restricts itself to the discussion of matters in which dialectic differences are to be observed, and the comparisons are almost wholly within Greek itself. Furthermore, the desired brevity could be secured only by eliminating almost wholly any detailed discussion of disputed points and citation of the views of others, whether in agreement or in oppoSome notes and references sition to those adopted in the text. are added in the Appendix, but even these are kept within narrow limits. Several of these references are to articles which have appeared since the printing of the Grammar, which began in Septemof the
ber 1908, was completed. Especial pains have been taken to define as precisely as possible
the dialectic distribution of the several peculiarities, and
it is
be-
lieved that, though briefly stated
and without exhaustive lists of examples, fuller information of this kind has been brought together than is to be found in any other general work. Biit, as the most competent critics will also be the first to admit, no one can be safe from the danger of having overlooked some stray occurrence of a given peculiarity in the vast and still much scattered material; and, furthermore, such statements of distribution are subject to the need of continual revision in the light of the constantly appearing
new
material.

The Selected

The transcription employed is also identical with that used by Solmsen in his second edition, but this again is the result of longsettled conviction that this system, as used for example by Baunack in his Inschriften von Gortyn (1885) and his edition of the Delphian inscriptions (1891), is the one best adapted for a work of this kind.

the need of a comment or reference for a form that, from the point of view of the dialect in question, has nothing abnormal about it.
Furthermore, the Glossary makes it unnecessary to comment on many individual words. Detailed discussion of the problems of chronology, constitutional antiquities, etc. which are involved in many of the inscriptions is not called for in a work the principal
aim of which is linguistic. It is sometimes advisable for a student to depart from the order in which the inscriptions are given, and to begin his study of a dialect with one of the later inscriptions, e.g. in Arcadian to read first no. 18, leaving until later the
more
difficult nos. 16, 17.

The existence of Ionic, Aeolic, and Doric elements in the people and speech of Greece is an undoubted fact of Greek history, and one of first importance to an understanding of the dialect relations. But there is no warrant, either ia the earUer Greek tradition or in the linguistic evidence, for making this an aU-inclusive classification. These three elements were precipitated, as it were, on the coast of Asia ilinor, where their juxtaposition gave rise to the historical recognition of the distinction.

1 It is equally natural, and quite iustiflable as a matter of convenience, to apply the same names to these earlier divisions. That the name Ionian, for example, did not gain its current application on the mainland, but in the east, is of no consequence. Such generic terms are everywhere of gradual growth. 2 That is, in a period contemporaneous with the Aeolic and Achaean occupation of other parts of Greece (see below). Of a still remoter period the view has been advanced that the lonians formed the first wave of Greek migration, were in fact the much-discussed Pelasgians, and for a time occupied also the territory which with the next wave of migration became Aeolic or Achaean.

that the connections with Aeolic are earlier and more fundamental,

But that brings us before the " mystery of the Achaean- name," that most difficult problem of the relation between the Achaeans of the Phthiotis and the pre-Doric Achaeans of the Peloponnesus, and of those again to the historical Achaeans on the Corinthian Gidf, whose dialect is West Greek. reflecting a period of geographical continuity

In Aetolia, for example, before the rise of the Northwest Greek Koivq there was undoubtedly a distinct Northwest Greek dialect, probably most nearly related to Locrian, but of this pure Aetolian we have no knowledge. Of the speech of Aeniania and Malis previous to the Aetolian domination we have no remains. It is natural to suppose that Northwest Greek dialects were once spoken also in Acarnania and Epirus. But here the influence of the Corinthian colonies was strong from an early period, as shown by the use of the Corinthian alphabet in the few early inscriptions and in later times, from which nearly all the material dates, the language employed is not the dialects of this group.

That is, the 17 from d was at first an extremely open e-sound, even more open than that of original e, and even in the historical period the two sounds are distinguished in the spelling of some inscriptions of the Cyclades.

In most dialects p was lost before the time of our earliest inscriptions and we find, as in Attic, initial p, medial pp or p. See a. a. In the case of medial pp, which would occur only in compounds and augmented or reduplicated forms of words with initial pp, the p unites with the preceding vowel to form a diphthong in Lesbian (cf. 35), e.g. evpayrj, avpr/KTOs (Herodian) from *i-ppa,yrj, *a-/rp7;KTos (Att. ippdyrj, apprjKro^'), Horn. raXavpivoi from *TaA.o-/rptvos. But elsewhere the syllabification of the simplex (or form without augment or reduplication) was retained (i. e. pp with the following vowel), and later this pp became pp or sometimes p, e. g. Arg. pf.pplp.eva., appireve, later dpijTeue. In Attic and most dialects augmented and reduplicated forms have pp, as Att. ippridriv (etp-^Ko. is formed after the analogy of forms like eiXricjia, 76 b), ippdy-qv, eppmya, Heracl. ippyjya., while compounds also usually have pp but sometimes p under the continued influence of the simplex, as Att. avapprjOm but also 6.vapyj6a

That is, the evidence is often insufficient to determine whether the omission of the sign of the asper is merely graphic, in which case we should transcribe the form with ', or due to an actual loss of the sound, in which case we should transcribe with '. As a work-

Some few peculiarities of which occasional examples are found elsewhere are included, e. g., in this section, Iv = iv, which is regularly found only in ArcadoCyprian, but of which there are a few examples elsewhere.

Although, only a part of these characteristics are actually quotable from every one of the West Greek dialects, some indeed from only a few, a.
it is
were
probable that, except for the divergence of Cretan in 5 and 7, they common to all, and that the absence of examples in any dialect is
accidental.
Thus, forms like
<^£/9o/xc$
are attested for Phocian and most of
the Doric dialects, but there is no occurrence of a first plural form in Locrian and Elean, and in Rhodian only from the time when -/itv had been
introduced from the kolv^, just as it was at Delphi before the end of the fourth century b. c. The early substitution of the kolvq forms of the numerals and the rare occurrence of the personal pronouns in inscriptions, account for the incomplete representation of 2, 3, 16-19. 6.
The

In Boeotia, which was in the Aetolian league but a short time (245-234 B.C.), it was never employed, though there are some few traces of its influence (222). The only extant decrees of Cephallenia and Ithaca, of about 200 B.C., are in this same Northwest Greek koiv^, reminding us that Cephallenia, of which Ithaca was a dependency, was allied all of
with the Aetolians (Polyb. 4.6). Parts of the Peloponnesus were also for a time under Aetohan domination, and the characteristic dative plural in -ots is found in Arcadia, Messenia (also iv = ek),

Cyprian The Cyprian Syllabary
Nearly all the Cyprian inscriptions are written in a special syllabary. This consists of signs for each of the five vowels these being used where no consonant immediately precedes, that is initially and for the second and signs for each combination of consonant and element of diphthongs
—
—
rne, etc. But there is no distinction between long and short vowels, nor, in the case of mutes, between surd, sonant, and aspirate. Hence the sign te (the transcription with t is a matter of conven-
following vowel, as ma,
tion)
may
stand for
not written,
e.g.
te, rrj, Se, 87;,
ati=
6e.,
or
6ri.
Nasals before consonants are
a.(y)rL^
For a final consonant the sign containing the vowel e is used, e.g. kase For groups of consonants the first is indicated by the sign containing the vowel of the syllable to which this consonant belongs. That is, its vowel is determined by the following in the case of initial groups and consonant -I- liquid by the preceding in the case of liquid -t- consonant, and also o- -I- consonant (cf. 89.1). 1\ms potoline = tttoXlv, patiri= iraTpl,,

ples of other groups are rare.^ 1 In the Greek transcription the mutes are distinguished and the nasal before consonants is supplied in parentheses. But e and o, not 7;, a, are used, in accordance with the practice adopted for other inscriptions where the signs 77 and a are not in use. For some uncertainties in regard to the proper transcription, see 199. 2 We find me ma name no i = luiivaiiAvot, ka si ke ne toise = Ka'a^iyverois but i ki mamenose = Ixixaixivoi, terekinija = Tipxvija, tipetera- = SupBepa-, -vanakoto

under which the lands were fered for rental (11. 96-179), and a tions

GLOSSARY AND INDEX In the alphabetical arrangement the presence of p is ignored, in order to obviate the separation of the many forms which occur with and without it. Thus (f)CKaTi, i.e. plKaTL or [Kan, stands in the position of tKari, and vo(f)6s in the position of vads. f stands in the position of k. For inflectional forms the conventional captions (nom. sg., 1 sg. pres. indie.) are sometimes substituted, and in these the transcription which we have employed for forms occurring in the epichoric alphabets is frequently replaced by the more familiar spelling, e.g. e, o. A, by ij, w, ', or Cret. tt, k, by 0, x- But the precise form occurring is sometimes retained as a caption, or added, or given separately witli a cross-reference. Brevity and convenience in each case have been preferred to consistency. The references are numbers in Clarendon type, to the sections of the Grammar, or, where App. is added, to the corresponding sections of the Appendix; otherwise, to the numbers of the inscriptions. The Heraclean Tables (no. 74) and the Cretan Law-Code (no. 110) are cited by name. :
