Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT

ἑκατόν. P Lond 11784 (a.p. 194) (ΞΞ 111. p. 217, Selections, p. 100) ἐνἸτάγιον πᾶν ἐκ πλήρους δηνάρια ἑκατόν, “a fee amounting altogether to a hundred denarii.” Other citations are needless. MGr has ἑκατό(ν). ἑκατοντάρχης (—06). The variations between rst and 2nd decl. forms of this word in the papyri may be illustrated by P Ryl IT. 1413 (A.D. 37) a petition addressed Tatwr Τρεβίωι ᾿Τούστωι éxaτοντάρχῃ and 16. 8117 (c. A.D. 104) διὰ TOOL... 2... ] ἑϊκατον]τάρχου ᾿Ιουλίου. See for the Biblical usage Thackeray Gr. i. p. 156. For a reference to a soldier \eyeGyos δευτέρας ἑκατονταρχίας Βραβιρίου who accompanied apparently as a guard a cargo-boat of grain belonging to the government, see P Oxy II. 2769 (A.p. 77). The form éxaτόνταρχος along with πεντηκόνταρχος (cf. Exod 1821 a/.) is found in Predsigke 599 (Ptol.). The rin ἑκατόνταρχος is due to false analogy with πεντηκόνταρχος, as in English “tobacconist”” has borrowed its ‘‘n” from such a word as “pianist.” See Boisacq Dict. Etym. p. 233 n.1, where ἑκατοντακάρανος is cited from Pindar.
