Description: [Abstract] The term « Phrygian tale » was applied to two particular types of text, those that presented either euhemerizing (e.g., Diodorus 3, 66, 4-74, 1 ; Lysimachus of Alexandria, FGrHist F 8 382 ; Cicero, nat. deor. 3, 42) or allegorical (e.g., Cornutus, ND 17) interpretations of divine myth. The reason they were described as « Phrygian » was connected with popular belief in the antiquity of the Phrygians and their language. (année philologique)
