Even today there is a margin of uncertainty regarding the subject of adesp. fr. 637 Kannicht-Snell, upon which I have thrown more light through the philological analysis conducted in the present contribution. After showing that it is more prudent to attribute these verses to an unidentified Iphigenia, I have reflected upon the tragic evidence of Iphigenia’s myth, in order to search for the authorship of adesp. fr. 637 Kannicht-Snell.
