It will also be found
that names are frequently derived from races, places
and many other causes. Further there are obsolete
slave-names such as Marcipor or Publipor1 derived

case in Greek and a seventh in Latin. For when I
say “wounded by a spear,” the case is not a true
ablative in Latin nor a true dative in Greek.
