  • Summary

    An investigation of the Luvo-Hittite dammara- religious functionaries (male and female) and the borrowing of the term into Ahhiyawan (Ur-Aeolian) and, thence, European Mycenaean cult vocabulary as dumartes and its variant damartes (a scribal borrowing), and an exploration of the Anatolian source of the theonym Artemis. The intersection of both the cult title and divine name with Mycenaean dialect variation is carefully examined.

  • Summary

    Our text of Homer uses a combination of dialects, indicating both that it couldn’t have been the native language of an individual speaker, and also that it must have evolved over a long period of time. Words from different dialects sometimes have different metrical values, allowing for great flexibility of expression.
