References

page 295 note 1 It is an error which appears in some otherwise well-informed books, that the true diphthong appears as ε in the prae-Ionic alphabet.

page 295 note 2 The Naxian use of η and ε is isolated, and points to a separate pronunciation of the Attic-Ionic η.

page 296 note 1 On a few Boeotian inscriptions we can catch the transition from αι to η, in the spelling αε.
