English (LSJ)
ὁ, Rarus, father of Triptolemus, Paus.1.14.3, Hsch., Suid.; in Phot. Ῥάρ:—τὸ Ράριον πεδίον the field A of Rarus, where tillage was first practised, and which was sacred to Demeter, Paus.1.38.6, St.Byz.; (without πεδίον) Ράριον, τό, h.Cer.450; Ραρία, ἡ (sc. γῆ), Plu.2.144b; whence the goddess was herself called Ραριάς, ἡ, St.Byz. [α is long, h.Cer. l.c., so that the accent is prob. not Ράρος, as in most codd.:—for the smooth breathing, v. Hdn.Gr.2.402, 940.]
Greek (Liddell-Scott)

Παραλ. 74· - τὸ ’Ράριον πεδίον, τὸ ἀνῆκον εἰς τὸν ’Ρᾶρον, ὅπου κατὰ πρῶτον ἐκαλλιεργήθη ἡ γῆ καὶ ὅπερ ἦν ἱερὸν τῆς Δήμητρος, Παυσ. 1. 38, 6, Στέφ. Β. (καὶ ἄνευ τοῦ πεδίον) ’Ράριον, τό, Ὁμ. Ὕμν. εἰς Δήμ. 450· ὅθεν καὶ ἡ θεὰ αὐτὴ ἐκαλεῖτο ’Ραριάς, ἡ, Στέφ. Β. [Τὸ α εἶναι μακρόν, Ὁμ. Ὕμν. ἔνθ’ ἀνωτέρ., ὥστε ὁ τονισμὸς πρέπει νὰ εἶναι ’Ρᾶρος, οὐχὶ ’Ράρος, ὡς ἐν τοῖς πλείστοις τῶν Ἀντιγράφων. - Περὶ τοῦ ψιλοῦ πνευματισμοῦ ἴδε Ἀρκάδ. 200. 21, Χοιροβ. 905. 3].
