Headword: *pa/trios qeo/s
Adler number: pi,794
Translated headword: ancestral god
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[no gloss]
Greek Original:
*pa/trios qeo/s.
Note:
The headword phrase in this nominative singular form occurs only here and in the scholia to Euripides, Rhesus 703, where it is used to gloss the tragedian's phrase to\n u(/paton qew=n ("supreme of gods"). However, it is not self-evidently a quoted phrase but may rather be simply generic. See e.g. Herodotus 1.172.2 (dative plural).
Keywords: dialects, grammar, and etymology; historiography; religion; tragedy
