page 404 note 1 As for the name Zaraθuštra it is, of course, still unclear (cf. p. 247 sq.) though I have personally no doubt that it means something like “ the old camel ” or “ possessor of old camels ”. It is somewhat curious that the form ZωpoáσTpηs, which is undoubtedly the oldest transcription that we possess, gives no evidence for the doubtful internal -θ-.
