city
Γάδειρα, πόλις καὶ νῆσος ἐν τῷ ὠκεανῷ στενὴ καὶ περιμήκης, ὡς οὖσα ταινία τῆς γῆς δειρά. Ἐρατοσθένης δὲ ἡ Γάδειρος φησὶ θηλυκῶς. ὁ πολίτης Γαδειρεύς· οὕτω γὰρ τὰ πέντε βιβλία ἐπιγέγραπται τῶν Πυθαγορικῶν σχολῶν Μοδεράτου Γαδειρέως. λέγεται καὶ Γαδειρίτης, ὡς Ἀλέξανδρος ὁ πολυίστωρ. λέγεται καὶ Γαδειραῖος ὡς ἀπὸ τῆς ἡ Γάδειρα εὐθείας, καὶ Γαδειρανοί, καὶ κτητικὸν Γαδειρικός. Εὔπολις ἐν Μαρικᾷ “πότερ´ ἦν τὸ τάριχος Φρύγιον ἢ Γαδειρικόν;”

Gadeira: a city and island in the Ocean, narrow and very long, as it is a strip, a ridge of land. Eratosthenes gives it as 'he Gadeiros', in the feminine. A citizen is a 'Gadeireus'; for this is how the five books of the Pythagorean Lectures of Moderatus the Gadeireus are entitled. The form 'Gadeirites' is also used, as per Alexander Polyhistor. 'Gadeiraios' is also used, as if from the nominative 'he Gadeira', and 'Gadeiranoi', and the possessive is 'Gadeirikos'. Eupolis in his Marikas: 'was the salted fish Phrygian or Gadeiric?'
