Présentation de l'éditeur
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.

The passage from Strabo quoted above is the only authority which affixes to the inhabitants of northwestern and north-central Greece the name A eolic. On the other hand, the consentient testimony of the ancients regarded Thessaly and Boeotia alone as A eolic, and the grammarians restrict the use of 1R ead at the mjeting of the American Pliilological Association lield at I thaca, July,
