page 28 note 1 For λαιες in the sense of ‘a place of olives,’ a common noun of local significance, Papabasileios compares such forms as 
(Eph. Arch. 1902, p. 36). The first example is certainly relevant. Φελλες is the name of an Attic deme, and the termination ‘ενς,’ which occurs in the names of many of these demes (cf. Ἐλατρες in Delos), is thought to be adjectival. But the deme Φελλες means ‘a rocky place’; and it seems that the termination could be used for the formation of a local descriptive name, whether a proper or a common name. If the Attic deme Ἐλαιες meant originally ‘the olive-place,’ such a word could occur elsewhere as descriptive of similar localities. Neither the Greek editor nor the German scholar considers the question about the article.
page 30 note 1 Herodotus 9, 86 calls the leading men of the Medising faction at Thebes 
, but he is evidently using the word in its vague literary sense, and we know that the technical name for the magistrates at Thebes was not this. In the Delphic-Spartan rhetra ρχαγται is used as a synonym for the kings, but Plutarch in his interpretation (Lyc. 6) does not imply that this was ever their official title in their life-time.
