When the Oxyrhynchus Papyri (Vol. IX. No. 1174) of Sophocles' 'ІΧνενταí gave the forms κννηγ[Έ]σω (first aor. subj.), 1. 44 in Fragmenta Tragica Papyracea, and ΈκκννηγΈσαι, 1. 75, it restored to light a verb which is not acknowledged in the Lexicons, but which had remained, though almost unnoticed, in Phrynichus, Soph. Propar. in Bekker's Anecdota I. p. 48, and Theognostus' Canons in Cramer's Anecdota Oxoniensia II. p. 143. The form could not come from κννηγετΕîν, nor from the Hellenistic verb κννηγεîν, and attention was first drawn to these two authorities by P. Maas in Berl. Philol. Wochenschr. 1912, p. 1075, and by J. Stahl in Rhein. Mus. Vol. LXVIII. p. 307 (also by L. O. Tudeer in Suomalaisen Tiedeakatemian Toimituksia = Annales Academicae Scientiarum Fennicae, Ser. B. Vol. XIV.). I owe these references to Mr. Stuart Jones.
