Headword:
*)eleuqe/rios
Adler number: epsilon,804
Translated headword: of Freedom
Vetting Status: high
Translation: Zeus was called [this] for this reason, because freedmen [
eleutheroi] built the portico near him.[1] So [says]
Hyperides.[2] But
Didymus maintains that it is not because of this, but because of the fact that the Athenians escaped subjection to the power of Persia.[3]
Some interpret "of Freedom" [
e)leuqe/rios] as "licentious" [
a)/swtos]; and see under 'mastery'.[4]
