796 The thunderbolt of Zeus

Different in character from this early representation are the
attempts made occasionally throughout the classical period to equip

Fig. 765-

Poseidon with the attributes of Zeus, attempts possibly prompted
by the lingering belief that the former was fundamentally akin to

inscribed POM 0$A that Poseidon is actually dubbed Aio(s) (dyaX/xa). Why not
read Tlo<roi5{ai') ? Cp. Babelon Monn. gr. rom. ii. r. 1431 f. no. 2132 with n. 3, and
F. Bechtel Die griechischen Dialekte Berlin 1921 i. 350 f.
