GRAGG. — THE GREEK EPIGRAM BEFORE 300 B. C. 57 



Sim. 113- The vagueness of the epigram as to the identity of 

 Kallias makes it most improbable that this epigram is fifth-century 

 work, and the phrase evr av rSw/xat also points to a later period. 



Sim. 114. See Ilauvette and p. 21 of this article. 



Sim. 115, 116.^*'' The style is obviously Alexandrian. 



Sim. 119. See Hauvette. 



Sim. 124^ See PLG. 



Sim. 127-129. See Hauvette. 



Sim. 133. See PLG and Hauvette. 



Sim. 136. See Boas, pp. 73, 86, and Wilamowitz, Goett. Nachr., 

 1897, p. 311. 



Sim. 14:4. Bergk thinks this genuine because he considers that it 

 was imitated by Mnasalcas (AP 6. 125, 128). Of, however, AP 6. 124, 

 by Hegesippus, — a poem far simpler and better than this. Moreover, 

 we miss the name of the dedicator, an omission never found in the 

 fifth or even in the fourth century. ^^^ If the writers of the later epi- 

 grams mentioned above had any model before their eyes, it may have 

 been ep. 55, which is recalled by the epigram of Hegesippus. 



Sim. 146. See Hauvette, 



Sim. 154. The form of this epigram shows its late date. Cf. AP 7. 

 64, 79, 163, 470, 552. 



Sim. 156. See Hauvette. 



Plato 4-7, 11-13, 16-28, 30, 31. See PLG and Fava. 



With regard to other epigrams attributed to the fifth and fourth 

 centuries and not included in the preceding lists, see Bergk's notes. 

 In every case the attribution rests on very uncertain evidence, or the 

 poems themselves show plainly their late date.

 ^'8 111 ep. 145 there is no dedicator's name, but the language makes it clear that 

 the offering was made by the whole people.
