ἀχάριστος. In Sy 226159 (Olbia, on Euxine—iii/B.c.) the verb ἀχαριστεῖν occurs in the normal sense: see also BGU IV. 1026 ¥xii. 18 (jy/y A.D. magical) τοὺς δὲ ἀπαλλαγέντος (/. -as) καὶ dxaptotyoavrals]. In P Grenf I, 52" (iii/A.D.) ἀχάριστον — “‘antidote’’ “id est szze gratza,’’ as a Latin writer in Grenfell’s note explains it, assigning a reason. A poem dated A.D. 94 (Kazbe/ 618, Rome) is inscribed on the tomb of its precocious author, a boy of eleven: it has the line σπείρων εἰς ἀχάριστα μάτην θ᾽ ὑπὸ κυφὸν ἄροτρον ταῦρον ὑποζεύξας. Vettius also may be cited for adj. and verb, and the abstract ἀχαριστία.
