The Dialects of North Greece. The statement of Strabo (VIII i, 2, p. 333) -navni ol yap eKT or ladfj Lov 7ttv A drjvaiaiv Koi Meyaptau koi Tav ufju tou Tiaiivnacroi A wpuap Kai vvv en A lo Xels Ko Kovvrai is a Statement wliich epigraphic testimony proves to contain an illegitimate use of A to Xelr, but which is doubtless to be explained by reference to that plastic use of tribal names the most patent case of which is the extension of the term EW rjves.
