Headword: Athênaion
Adler number: alpha,730
Translated headword: Athenaion, Athenaeum, shrine of Athena
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
Apollonion [is] short for the shrine of Apollo. This is how one must construe it in Thucydides.[1] Also [sc. attested is] Poseidonion, that of Poseidon, like Athenaion, that of Athena, and Dionysion and Demetrion and all such [shrines] that have names similar to the proper names. As to "Poseidaneion", [it is] clear that [it is] Dorian.
Greek Original:
Athênaion: hoti Apollônion bracheôs, to hieron tou Apollônos. houtôs kai para Thoukudidêi anagnôsteon. kai Poseidônion, to tou Poseidônos, hôs Athênaion, to tês Athênas, kai Dionusion kai Dêmêtrion kai panta ta toiauta homônuma tois andrônumikois: to de Poseidaneion, dêlon hoti Dôriaion.
