Τροία

English (LSJ)

Ion. Τροίη, ἡ,

   A Troy, whether of the city, 'Troy-town', Il. 9.46, etc.; or the country, the Troad, Τροίην ἐριβώλακα 3.74, etc.:—also Τροΐα as trisyll., Sapph.Supp.5.9, Scol.17,18, dub. in S.Aj.1190 (lyr., v. ad fin.); Dor. Τρωΐα Pi.N.2.14, 3.60, A.Ch.363 (lyr.); contr. Τρῴα Pi.O.2.81 (cj. Boeckh for Τροίας):—hence Τροίᾱθεν, Ion. -ηθεν, from Troy, Od.3.257, etc.; ἀπὸ Τροίηθεν Il.24.492; Dor. Τρωΐᾱθεν Pi.N.7.41:—Τροίανδε, Ion. -ηνδε, to Troy, Il.7.390, etc.; Dor. Τρῴανδε Pi.I.4(3).36(54).    II a game, the Lat. Troja (Verg.A.5.602), Τροίαν ἱππεῦσαι D.C.59.7, cf. 11. [Zenod. and Aristarch. scanned Τροίη (Troy) as disyll. everywhere in Hom., but Aristarch. scanned (and wrote) (πόλιν) Τροΐην as trisyll. in Il.1.129, Od.11.510, understanding 'a Trojan city (city of the Troad)', v. Sch. Il. l.c.; cf. Τρώϊος: Τροίη (-ης -ῃ -ην) stands at the beginning of the line in the phrase Τροίῃ ἐν εὐρείῃ Il.24.256,494, Od.1.62, 4.99, 5.307; in the other 82 occurrences the trisyll. form is admitted by the metre, but should perh. not be restored, as disyll. Τροίη (-ης etc.) is almost inevitably so placed in a hexam.:—codd.Pi. (in contrast to codd.Hom.) have Τρωΐα N.4.25, al., and Τροΐα ib.2.14, al. (with either spelling the word may begin with ), cf. Eust.65.22.]
