Oie[1] [is] a deme of [sc. the Athenian tribe] Pandionis.[2] And the adverb of place is
Οἰῆθεν "from Oie."
Philochorus says that Oie is the daughter of Kephalos, and wife of Charops.[3]
Abridged from Harpokration (and
Photius) s.v., commenting on
Isaeus fr. 49 Thalheim.
[1] The name had several variants. Versions with initial omega seem more authentic than (as here) omicron; and plural Oai, it has been argued (L. Threatte,
The Grammar of Attic Inscriptions vol.1 (Berlin 1980) 285; J.S.Traill,
Demos and Trittys (Toronto 1986) 129, with 57 n.7), is to be preferred to singular Oa.
