A Smaller Dictionary of Greek and Roman Antiquities

TRANSCRIBER’S NOTE
Basic fractions are displayed as ½ ⅓ ¼ etc; other fractions are mostly shown in the form a / b , for example 4 / 9 . The book also has some fractions in the form a-b, for example 1-40th or 7-100ths.
Each entry in the dictionary is a Latin name and uses vowel breves and macrons to indicate pronunciation. Greek words in the text use polytonic Greek. Some other less common characters are found in this book and these will display on this device as: ⛛ (0x26DB inverted Greek Δ) M̄ (M with 0x0304 combining macron) C̄ (C with 0x0304 combining macron) ⬤ (0x2B24 black circle)
The original text was printed in two-column format; the indexes at the back of the book reference the page and the column, a (left) or b (right). This etext uses the normal single column format so that the column reference does not apply; only the page reference is relevant.
The cover image was created by the transcriber and is placed in the public domain.
