Headword:
*lukw/reia
Adler number: lambda,829
Translated headword: Lykoreus, Lykorian
Vetting Status: high
Translation: Also [sc. attested is] Lykoreia, a name of a city.[1]
Greek Original:*lukwreu/s. kai\ *lukw/reia, o)/noma po/lews.
Notes:
The unglossed primary headword is both the ethnikon of the place about to be mentioned and a personal name in its own right. Apollonius Rhodius,
Argonautica 2.51 invented (according to the
scholia thereto) a Lycoreus as the attendant of King Amykos; and the city Lykoreia had -- inevitably -- an eponymous founder of that name (cf.
lambda 830).
[1]
Stephanus of
Byzantium classifies it as a "village in
Delphi"; see also
Strabo 9.3.3.
