Hêgetês: ho hêgemôn. ô dissai ageta thêrosunai.
[1] Headword and gloss are from the
Synagogê (
Lexica Segueriana eta.248.23). Also in
Photius,
Lexicon eta31 (Theodoridis). Perhaps the origin is a scholion to
Plato,
Republic 547b7 where this term, very rare in all periods, occurs.
[2] (
ἀγέτα is the Doric form of the vocative of
ἠγέτης .) Quoted from Greek Anthology 6.167.2, but corrupting the original text, which is:
ὠ δισσᾶς ἀγέτα θηροσύνας ; “o guide of the double chase”. It is an invocation to an unidentified god who loves both hunting and fishing, made by Kleonikos, who is both hunter and fisherman.
