Artémis Digaia Blaganitis en Macédoine

Abstract

The study of a copy of an inscription, now lost, and of a text of Hesychius leads to the interpretation of two mysterious invocations of Artemis, "Blaganitis" and "Digaia", known on an altar found before the last war in Emathia. Furthermore, they allow us to make some conclusions about the phonology of the old Macedonian dialect.
