Paragraph
26

οἱ δὲ παλαιοὶ τοὺς πρὸς ταῖς ὑπηρεσίαις ταύταις κήρυκας ἐκάλουν. Ὅμηρος· κήρυκες δʼ ἀνὰ ἄστυ φέρον θεῶν ὅρκια πιστά, ἄρνε δύω καὶ οἶνον ἐύφρονα, καρπὸν ἀρούρης, ἀσκῷ ἐν αἰγείῳ· φέρε δὲ κρητῆρα φαεινὸν κῆρυξ Ἰδαῖος ἠδὲ χρύσεια κύπελλα. καὶ πάλιν· ἀτὰρ κήρυκες ἀγαυοὶ ὅρκια πιστὰ θεῶν σύναγον, κρητῆρι δὲ οἶνον μίσγον, ἀτὰρ βασιλεῦσιν ὕδωρ ἐπὶ χεῖρας· ἔχευαν. Κλείδημος δὲ τοὺς μαγείρους κήρυκάς φησι καλεῖσθαι. καὶ τὴν Ἥβην δέ τινες ἀνέπλασαν οἰνοχοοῦσαν αὐτοῖς, ἴσως διὰ τὸ ἡβητήρια καλεῖσθαι τὰ συμπόσια. Κλεινοῦς δὲ τῆς οἰνοχόου Πτολεμαίου τοῦ βασιλέως, ἐπίκλην δὲ Φιλαδέλφου, μνημονεύει Πτολεμαῖος τοῦ Ἀγησάρχου ἐν τῇ τρίτῃ τῶν περὶ Φιλοπάτορα ἱστοριῶν. Πολύβιος δὲ ἐν τῇ τεσσαρεσκαιδεκάτῃ τῶν ἱστοριῶν καὶ ἀνδριάντας αὐτῆς ἐν Ἀλεξανδρείᾳ ἑστάναι φησὶ κατὰ πολλὰ μέρη τῆς πόλεως μονοχίτωνας, ῥυτὸν κρατοῦντας ἐν ταῖς χερσίν.

CTS URN Retriever

The CTS URN retriever is a tool for retrieving and citing paragraphs, passages, and words in the text of the Deipnosophists by typing the corresponding CTS URN. The Digital Athenaeus is providing the text of the Teubner edition of the Deipnosophists by Georg Kaibel (1887-1890), which is cataloged as perseus-grc2 in the Perseus Catalog.

The syntax of the URNs follows the specification of the CITE Architecture.

For example:

The tool allows also users to type only book and paragraph of the Deipnosophists and get the corresponding CTS URN.

For example:

Correspondences between Casaubon and Kaibel references are available through the Casaubon-Kaibel Reference Converter.

The icons on the left of each paragraph are links to external resources:

Using CTS URNs, it is possible to export citations of the Deipnosophists down to the word level. By selecting a portion of text holding down the ALT-key, users get a pop-up window with the CTS URN that identifies the selected chunk of text.
