transliteration from one language into the other ^(7) and k(n), d (5) and t(r), b (H) and
p (tt) are interchangeable: for references and examples see my article on "Apollo and the
Apple" in the Bulletin of the John Rylands Library, Manchester, 1922 vii. 138—140.
I have in this article tried to show that in respect of the sets of stops which are fortes or
lenes there is a probability of the Illyrian dialects agreeing with Latin rather than Greek.
If then, as I have ventured to surmise, the god's name were borrowed by the Greeks
from an Illyrian dialect, in which the form had a voiced stop and was connected with the
stem meaning "apple," which runs through the northern languages and appears probably
in the name of Abella in Campania, the unvoicing of the stop in transmission, that is to
say, the change from b to p, need cause us no surprise. The suggestion is somewhat
strengthened by the occurrence of the proper names Abellio (dat. Abellioni] in an inscrip-
tion from Salona on the Dalmatian coast (Corp. inscr. Lai. iii no. 2169, 3) and Abello
(gen. Abellonis) in another from Mursa in Pannonia Inferior (ib. iii no. 10271, 3).'

on coins of Mylasa was, like Artemis at Ephesos (ii. 408 n. o), linked to the ground with
fillets (ii. 574), and that the Zeus of Euromos is covered with dots, which may represent
breasts (ii. 592 ff.).
