Poll. 3,52. Schol. to Aristoph., Frogs, 798. Both sacrifices were offered
at the Apaturia: Demotionidai-inscr., 1. 58 sq. The inscr. shows that
petov meant the smaller offering, as Mommsen, #b., 808, conjectured. I now
conjecturally identify the uetoy with the sacrifice offered at the enrolment
of girls (cf. Is. 8, 78. 75. 76. 79). Sauppe 9/10 and others regard eiov as
the offering made at the first introduction of girls and boys, xod’peov as the
offering made at @ second introduction of the child supposed by them
to have taken place from a passage in Poll. 8, 107. But since that passage
contains an error on the subject of the yauyA/a as well, J cannot attach such
importance to it as to infer from it the fact of a second, and indeed the
decisive, introduction. The case of Callias in Andoc., de Myst., 127, in-
troducing a boy 437 uéyay byra, is obviously something unusual. See also
Philippi, Bestr., 101/2.
