Tms book fulfils a promise made when I was thirteen. It was nine years later that I first met the man who had made it, Reinhold Merkelbach. By then he had published his valuable annotated edition of the Hesiodic papyrus fragments ('Die Hesiodfragmente auf Papyrus', Archiv fur Papyrusforschung16, 1957, also published separately by Teubner), and drafted a monograph on the contents and structure of the Catalogueof Women. From.this typescript I received my first illumination in the subject, and its aims and methods are reflected in the central chapter of the present work. He had shelved it, and his planned edition of all the Hesiodic fragments, because it was known that many new Oxyrhynchus papyri were on the way. After a time he invited me to collaborate with him on the edition, and that duly appeared in 1967. We intended to produce the monograph together too. But as the years passed he found his time increasingly taken up by epigraphy; and although I long cherished the hope that he might return to work on the Catalogue,he eventually decided that he must leave it to me. It would have given me the greatest pleasure to see my name coupled again with his on the title page. He is in the book, all the same. It would not exist but for him. M.L.W.

NATURE

OF THE

CATALOGUE

AFTER the Theogony and Works and Days, the poem in five books known as the Catalogue of Women or Ehoiai was, until the fourth century AD, the most widely read of the poems that anciently went under the name of Hesiod, and the one most constantly attributed to him. 1 Quotations and allusions provide us with a considerable number of fragments, and over the last century our knowledge of the poem has been greatly enlarged by the appearance of papyri: pieces from over fifty ancient copies are now known, and there is every likelihood that the future will bring more to light. We are already in a pos1twn to see something of the structure of the work and to come to certain conclusions about its origins. The standard title applied to it is I'vvaiKwv Kan5.>.oy0.a,'Ho,a, applied to another 'Hesiodic' poem, for the function of the adjective p,.ai was to distinguish that work from a shorter one of similar name. 5 1

Scrvius on Aen. 7.268 cites 'Hesiodus 1repi yv11atKcill'',while Pausanias 9.3r.5, in his list of poems ascribed to Hesiod, refers to it as ls yv11aiKasai/36µ,o,va{cf. 1.3.1 €1rmTll €s -rOsyvvaiKas').

fragments come from Stephanus of Byzantium, who names Hecataeus as his source for certain towns; the sentence 'fJ OE Beµ,iaKVp17 7Te8lovEaTlvd7Td Xa8ia{17s µ,€xpi Bepµ,WOovTosstrongly recalls Hecataeus' II.ptooo, I'ij,, 25 but is quoted as being from his I',vmAoy{ai (1 F 7a). Hecataeus seems to have almost excluded the gods from his history. He was writing of what we call the mythical age, but to him it was all historical, and he was concerned that it should be rational. 26 Yet he still admits such propositions as T')i Llavai µ{ay,rn, ZEilurce, sch. Pind. 01. g.68b, makes Hellen and Deukalion bol,h sons of Prometheus, but gives the usual account of Pyrrha, that she was the daughter of Epimetheus and wife of Deukalion. She is never paired with anyone but Deukalion, apart from the passage under consideration. Deukalion certainly had a wife in the Catalogue(for he had at least one child, F 7), and we know ofno one she might have been other than Pyrrha. As Pyrrha is the mother of Hellen in F 2, it seems hard to resist the conclusion that Deukalion, not Prometheus, was his father (or nominal father, if Zeus was the real father): Prometheus' name must have been accidentally repeated from the line before. This is supported by the statement in F 6 that Deukalion's descendants ruled in Thessaly, for these can hardly be any but the stock of Hellen, in particular some of the Aiolids. Deukalion also has a daughter Thyia, who in union with Zeus becomes the mother ofMagnes and Makedon, 'who dwelt about Pieria and Olympus' (F 7). Parallel with this, as it seems, is the information that the Kovpri Pandora, in Deukalion's 36 As suggested in FH, it may have been displaced from the next line where Pyrrha is mentioned and a statement of her parentage would be apposite. Pandora as mother of Deukalion is not wholly unknown to tradition; see Strabo 9.5.23 p. 443, In sch. Hes, Op. r 58a Deukalion and Pyrrha are both children of Epimetheus. 37 The recension represented by Parisinus gr. 2727 adds ~ .dev,mAlwvos after llpop:1]8iws, but this is probably no more than a speculative harmonization with the usual genealogy (C. Wendel, Philologus 8r, 1926, 19; Giitting, Abh. 1932, 50; A. Casanova, Lafamiglia di Pandora,Florence 1979, 158).

house, bore Graikos to Zeus (F 5). It has been debated whether Pandora is here Deukalion's daughter or his wife, or neither. 38 Ifit were not for her name, I think no one would have doubted that a daughter was meant, and the parallelism with Thyia tends to support this interpretation. We must then distinguish this Pandora from the one whom the gods sent to Epimetheus. Pandora also appears as a daughter ofDeukalion, impregnated by Zeus, in Clement of Rome, Recogn. 10.2 r. There she has a sister Protogeneia, whom Zeus also impregnates. This Protogeneia is known from other sources. 3 9 Her child was Aethlios. Aethlios appeared in the Catalogueas a son of Zeus and father of Endymion (F rnc= 245), and it is very tempting to supply Protogeneia as a third daughter of Deukalion to be his mother. 40 The pattern of three daughters who are all loved by gods is one that will recur later. The three names fit easily into a verse, e.g.

Hence Hellen is the only one of Deukalion's children who has a major heroic stemma issuing from him. If Magnes, Makedon, and Graikos are all sons of Zeus, it seems probable a fortiori that Hellen was too, and that 'Hesiod' is concealed in the nvl,; who said that he was y6vwi µ,Ev.di6,;, A6ywi OE.i::lEvKaAtwvo,;.44

As a grandson of Deukalion Aethlios will be in the same generation as Aiolos, one of whose daughters"he married. Besides begetting children in the customary way, Deukalion created a tribe of men by throwing stones which Zeus put in his way. These were the Leleges, who came under the leadership of Lokros (F 234) and are therefore located in Locrian territory presumably East Locris; Pindar places Deukalion's stonethrowing at Opous. 4 2 8 ~ Wilamowitz, Hermes34, 1899, 6w=Kl. Sehr. iv.81, prefers to see her as his wife, so that Graikos may be on a level with Hellen. He is followed by Merkelbach, Chronique d'iigypte 43, 1968, 144. Most scholars, however, have followed B. Niese, Hermes 12, 1877, 416, in taking her as Deukalion's daughter. Casanova, op. cit. 176--87, argues that she is Epimetheus' ex-wife who has found lodging with her son-in-law. But she would hardly be called a Ko!Jp71 in that case. 39 Pherec. 3 F 23, Paus. 5.r.3, Apld. 1.49, sch. Pind. Ol. 9.62b, d, 646, 79c, 81, 86c, Hyg. Fab. 155.3; in a different genealogy, Pind. Ol. 9.41 ff. Sch. Pind. Ol. 9.64c reports that some made her a daughter of Prometheus. 4 ° Cf. S6der, op. cit. (n. 8), 73; Schwartz, 286, 340. Casanova, op. cit. 154 and 181, wrongly says that Kalykc was Acthlios' mother. She was his wife. 4 1 It is curious that Erechtheus had daughters called Oreithyia, Pandora, and Protogeneia. 42 0/. 9,43 ff. Apld. 1.48 locates it on Parnassus, but does not say which side. In Dion. Hal. Ant. Rom. 1.17.3, Dion. Calliph. 71, and St. Byz. s.v. cJ>611KoS' the Leleges are located in Ozolian LoCiis. But according to ps.-Scymnus 481 f. and Plut. Q,uaest.Gr. 294e (cf. Didymus ap. Ath. 70c; Aristotle fr. 561) Ozolian Locris was settled from East Locris. Aristotle, frr. 473 and 560, had Leleges in both areas, Pliny, HN 4.27, says Locr{

referred to Hermes carrying Aristaios away after his birth, but it may mean only that Hermes cooperates with him in his activity as a pastoral divinity. 126 It may be worth remarking that another Ehoie connected with the mythical origins of the Libyan colony appeared in the M,ya,\a, 'Ho,ai (F 253): the Ehoie of Mekionike, mother of Euphemos, the Argonaut who plays such a significant role in relation to the foundation of Kyrene in the fourth Pythian. A testimony that Hesiod brought the Argonauts to Libya (F 241) is very probably to be assigned to the Mekionike-Ehoie. 127 This curious detour must be a Cyrenaean contribution to the Argonaut legend. We know of one Cyrenaean poet in the sixth century who adapted heroic myth in his city's interest, and whose work had some success: Eugammon, who in his Telegony gave Odysseus a son Arkesilaos , with at least a hint that the Battiadai were his descendants. The Argonauts' passage through Libya must have been invented by a poet of the same school. The M,ya,\a, 'Ho,a, accepted this Cyrenaean mythology, and there is no reason why we should not regard the Kyrene-Ehoic of the Cataloguein the same light. Aristaios married Autonoe, a daughter ofKadmos ( Th. 977), and was the father of Aktaion. We now know for certain that 126

Aktaion's story appeared in the Catalogue.128 I am still lath to believe, however, that this poem is the source of either the hexameter fragment preserved in Apollodorus 3.32 or that in P.Oxy. 2509. 129 It is possible that the Aktaion story preceded F 217, and that the lines about Aristaios in that fragment refer to his deification after his son's death.

Now, where in the Cataloguedid all this come? From what stock did Kyrene's mother spring, or, to put the question another way (since Chlidanope is a colourless figure with an artificial name, serving only to make a genealogical link), to which of his great families might our poet have seen fit to attach K yrene? Her Thessalian provenance might seem to call for an association with the Aiolidai. But her destiny lies in Africa. In the world of the Cataloguedoes Kyrene not belong with Li bye, Epaphos, Aigyptos, Phoinix, Arabos, and with those other girls whom the compulsion of divine love sent from continent to continent, lo and Europe? Does not Libye's presence in the line ofinachos' descendants, above Belos and Agenor, itself suggest Cyrenaean influence? 130 Even Eugammon's Telegonos, originally the son of Odysseus and Circe and half-brother of 128 F 217A, cf. 3,i6. Maiten had argued for its presence (op. cit., 17 ff.), Pasquaii. had disputed it (op. cit., 96-8). 129 For an indication of the later origin of the Apollodorus fragment (=Epic. Alex. adesp. 1 Powell) see Wyss on Antimachus fr. 32.2. The Oxyrhynchus fragment agrees with the Hcsiodic version in representing Aktaion as a suitor for Semele's hand (so also Stes. PMG 236, Acusilaus 2 F 33; perhaps implied by Ll,Os bvwt.,,Hn in line 6 of the Apollodorns fragment), but its plan and style are sub-Homeric rather than pseudoHesiodic. 130 Wilamowitz, Aisch. Interpr. 17, 'Wo kann diese Ethnographie anders entstanden sein als in einem libyschen Lande, das mit Hellas zusammenhangen will, denn dazu wird Llbye von lo abgeleitet, aber doch einen Vorrang vor Argos beansprucht. Und A.gypten ist dieses Land ebensowenig wie Asien, da beider Vertretcr erst von der Libye abstammen. Dern Erfinder dieser V0lkertafel war Belos der Vertreter einer V0lkergemeinschaft, die die Nachbarlande Asiens mit Agypten zusammenfa0te. Dann war er kein A.gypter, so hoch er deren G0tter hielt, sondern eben ein Libyer, d.h. Kyrenaer.' I find this more convincing than the suggestion of F. Vian, Les Origines de Th~bes, Paris 1963, 53 n. 5: 'Libye pourrait garder le souvenir des rois libyens qui regnCrent sur le Delta a partir du x• siCcle'.

Arkesilaos, later found his way into this genealogy, as a king of Egypt who married Io (Apld. 2.9) or as a son ofEpaphos and brother of Libye (sch. Eur. Or. 932). Aristaios' marriage to a daughter ofKadmos makes another link between Kyrene's family and Io's. It was suggested above that T€]0v176ra7TOpaav€ovaat in F 217.5, immediately following a passage about Aristaios, referred to Kadmos' daughters. That would imply a previous narration about Kadmos, and thus a location for the Kyrene-Ehoie in the middle of the Agenorid stemma. Chlidanope would then have to be placed somewhere in the upper reaches of the stemma, as high as Kadmos or higher. She might have been the daughter of Phoinix, perhaps, ifKadmos was his son, or of Agenor (hardly ofEpaphos, Libye, or Belos, for then we should expect the Ehoie to come before the beginning of Agenor's line). The most awkward feature of this hypothesis is Chlidanope's transfer from the house of Agenor (in the Near East?) to that of a northern Lapith, a rather extreme case of exogamy. But of course it was not simply a matter of choosing any handy fellow to marry her to. Some tradition or persuasion, the basis of which lies outside our understanding, dictated that Kyrene came to Libya from Thessaly. If this was to be reconciled with the desire to give her a genealogical connexion with Libya and Egypt, it was necessary to postulate a long-distance marriage link in a preceding generation. On the hypothesis that Agenor's children included Kepheus, Kadmos, and Chlidanope as well as Phoinix, the order of presentation might have been: List of Agenor's children, ending with Chlidanope; her marriage,

birth of Alkaia and K yrene. Children of Phoinix, Kepheus, Kadmos; descendants of Polydoros as far as Oidipous. f ol'r} Kyrene - Aristaios, Aktaion - more about Kadmos'

daughters. ,j' oir, Europe - her descendants. Phineus' world tour: outlandish nations sprung from gods.

I must confess to certain misgivings about the separation of Phineus' tour from his entry as the son of Phoinix, because I cannot suggest how the transition back to him could have been made.

OF THE

CATALOGUE

The contentsof booksJ and 4 We know that the latter part of the Inachid stemma occupied at least part of book 3, The Arcadian genealogies (Pelasgids and Arkasids) were quite compact and probably took up less than 200 lines. Part of the Atlantid section followed in the same book as the Arkasids, as P.Oxy. 1359 indicates. We could suppose this still to be book 3 without postulating an overcrowded book. If it was not book 3 it was book 4. The Pelopid stemma came in book 4 (F 195), and I have pointed out that it probably took as its point of departure the birth of Oinomaos to the Atlantid Sterope. The beginning of book 5 is concerned with Helen, the daughter of Tyndareos still an Atlantid connexion. The narrative continues to the catastrophe that is to end the heroic age. This may suggest an extensive and continuous Atlantid. genealogy occupying the whole stretch between the end of the Arcadian section and the end of book 4. But we have to find room somewhere for the Attic kings and also, in all likelihood, for a section on daughters of Asopos, including at least Aigina, the ancestress of the Aiakidai, probably Kerkyra and Salamis, and perhaps Antiope. The arrangement in Apollodorus, it will be recalled, is Descendants of Pelasgos

Trojan War. The indicatioi:is we have for the Catalogueare entirely consistent with this scheme. The Pelopid stemma, although an offshoot of the Atlantid, may have been deferred from the end of the Atlantid catalogue to a later point. Helen's story had to be deferred until the genealogies were substantially complete. If the sequence Agenorids-Arcadians-Atlantids-AsopidsAthenians-Pelopids is accepted, it remains to ask how they were distributed between books 3 and 4. To put the bookdivision before the Arcadians would seem to allow excessive space for the Agenorids (even ifwe supposed the Belids to spill over into the beginning of book 3), while leaving a dispropor-

The descendantsof Pelasgosand Arkas (book3) Pelasgos was represented as born from the earth, in Arcadia (F 160). He was the father ofLykaon (F 161), who had many sons - Apollodorus (3.96) says there were fifty, born from various mothers. They were mostly eponyms of Arcadian towns. 1 " One at least, Pallas, is attested for 'Hesiod' (F 162), and there may well be another in F 167,

Phellos being probably the eponym of Phelloe, an inconspicuous but well-watered and reputedly very old town in the mountains above Aigeira. According to Apollodorus I.e., Meliboia was an Oceanid whom one tradition made Pelasgos' wife, while another gave him the mountain nymph K yllene. As Apollodorus has just contrasted Acusilaus' account of Pelasgos' origin with Hesiod's, it is likely that the rival nominations for Pelasgos' wife are those of the same two authorities. It may be that Kyllene was his wife in the Catalogue, and Meliboia in Acusilaus. Ifso, we are free to suppose that Meliboia in F 167 is one ofLykaon's wives. It would be strange if Phellos belonged to an older generation than Pallas. 1 32 Lykaon and his sons were destroyed by Zeus, except for Nyktimos. The later heroes in the Arcadian stemma all descend from Kallisto and her son Arkas. Some writers made Kallisto the daughter of Lykaon, and this affiliation is attributed to 131 Another list in Paus, 8.3; a few further names from other sources; collected· by J. Schmidt, RE xiii. 2248 f. 1 32_Cf. E. Meyer, Forsch.z. all. Gesch.,i.55 f. Kyllene too appears as Lykaon's wife as an alternative to being Pelasgos' (Pherec. 3 F 156).
