Adler number: chi,403
Translated headword: chorikos, choricus, chorus-leader

Agathon, who used to create dramatic songs and act them out himself; therefore they are also called "choral" [songs].[1]
*xoriko/s: o( tou= xorou= e)ca/rxwn. toiou=tos h)=n *)aga/qwn, o(\s u(pokritika\ me/lh e)poi/ei kai\ au)to\s u(pokri/netai: dio\ kai\ xorika\ le/gei.
Note:
[1] From the
scholia to
Aristophanes,
Thesmophorizusae 101, where
Agathon (
alpha 124) appears. For
le/gei, Adler reports that ms F (= Laurentianus 55.1) has
le/getai; this should probably be preferred as it is also the reading in
mu 1445.
