The article aims to demonstrate that κίθαρις is a third declension noun with stem ending in -δ rather than, as it is generally considered by modern dictionaries, in -ι. Given that the only noun’s genitive of which we have trace – in ancient lexicography and in Euripides’ Erechtheus – is κιθάριδος, the A. suggests restoring this form in modern dictionaries and in the fragmentary Limenios’ paian to Apollo, where the genitive κιθάριος is supplied by conjecture.

Abstract

The article aims to demonstrate that κίθαρις is a third declension noun with stem ending in -δ rather than, as it is generally considered by modern dictionaries, in -ι. Given that the only noun’s genitive of which we have trace – in ancient lexicography and in Euripides’ Erechtheus – is κιθάριδος, the A. suggests restoring this form in modern dictionaries and in the fragmentary Limenios’ paian to Apollo, where the genitive κιθάριος is supplied by conjecture.
