[39] Cf. Monro, Odyssey, vol. ii. pp. 398-402. He is sceptical, as is Mr. Leaf, Iliad, vol. i. pp. xviii, xix. But see Mr. Allen in Classical Quarterly, i. 135 ff.

[41] Mr. Leaf writes (Iliad, vol. i. p. 86): "The conclusion is that the Catalogue" (of Iliad, ii.) "originally formed an introduction to the whole Cycle, and was composed for that part of it which, as worked up into a separate poem, was called the Kypria, and related the beginning of the Tale of Troy, and the mustering of the ships at Aulis." I do not quite know what Mr. Leaf means; but the evidence is that the Cypria contained "a Catalogue of the allies of the Trojans" (Kinkel, p. 20). Nothing is said of its containing a Catalogue of the Achaeans. Mr. Monro (Odyssey, vol. ii. p. 351) justly remarks that the Trojan Catalogue in the Cypria was intended to supplement the short Catalogue of the allies of Troy given in the Iliad: "Such an enlarged roll would be the natural fruit of increased acquaintance" (on the part of Greek settlers in Asia) "with the non-Hellenic races of Asia Minor."
