Αἰλία, πόλις Παλαιστίνης, ἡ πάλαι Ἱεροσόλυμα, ἀπὸ Αἰλίου Ἀδριανοῦ. ὁ πολίτης Αἰλιώτης, ὡς Κασταλιώτης Ἰταλιώτης. τινὲς δὲ καὶ Αἰλιεῖς αὐτοὺς καλοῦσιν, ὡς Εὐδαίμων ἐν τῇ ὀρθογραφίᾳ διὰ τῆς « ει » διφθόγγου γράφων τὸ Αἴλεια, καὶ τὸ Αἰλιεύς διὰ τοῦ « ι » “ὡς τὸ Σίγειον” φησί “Σιγιεύς”. ἀλλὰ περὶ μὲν τοῦ Σίγειον καὶ Σιγιεύς δειχθήσεται ἐν τῷ οἰκείῳ. οὐ μέντοι ἔοικε τὸ παράδειγμα. εἰ γὰρ τοῦτο, ὤφειλε δισύλλαβον τὸ Αἰλεύς. παρὰ μίαν γὰρ συλλαβὴν εὑρίσκεται τὰ τοιαῦτα, τῆς Ἀντιοχείας τὸ Ἀντιοχεύς. ἀλλ´ οὐδ´ ἀπὸ τούτων γίνεται τὰ εἰς « ευς » ἀρσενικά, ἀλλὰ ἀπὸ τῶν εἰς « ος ». ἀπὸ γὰρ τοῦ Ἀντίοχος Ἀντιοχεύς καὶ τοῦ Σέλευκος Σελευκεύς, ὡς Ἅβρων ἐν τῷ περὶ παρωνύμων. εἰ γὰρ παρὰ τὴν Ἀλεξάνδρειαν ἦν, Ἀλεξανδρειεύς ἂν ἦν. ἀμφοῖν δ´ ὁ Ἀλέξανδρος ἀρχή.
