cannot, I think, dissociate Hesych. AvaXos' 6 Aibwaos irapd Haiwcnv from Hesych. AiiaXbs'

' Dry ' (auw, avos, avaXeos) ? Cp. ' Ilya the Wet' and ' Ilya the Dry ' {supra i. 184).

been explained as ' le produit de quelque com-

the importation of Apollon Aa<pvy]<p6pos from
Thebes by the ' Dionysiac' clan to which the Theban and Attic Aigeidai belonged
(E. Maass in the Gb'tt. Gel. Anz. 1889 cli. 813 ff), though, since AiovvabboTos is a theo-
phoric name of regular formation (W. Pape—G. E. Benseler W'orterbuch der griechischen

was that of a man called Dionysodotos who in the mystic cult of Phlya (on which see
especially J. Toepffer Attische Genealogie Berlin 1889 pp. 39 f., 208 ff.) played—like
Pythagoras {supra p. 221 ff.)—the part of Apollon redivivus. However, it is far from
certain that the title of Apollon was AtovvcrbboTos. It may have been, and probably was,
Aiovvo~o86tt)s (cp. e.g. Zeus IIXovtoSottjs suprai. 503). As such it is quoted and expounded
