Abstract

Abstract The present study deals with Euripides Alexandros, fr. 46a K. Detailed analysis suggests that it does not come from the first scenes of the play and contain a conversation with Priam about the significance of the upcoming funeral games, but from the Cassandra scene: col. 1 is part of the seer’s speech to Hecabe; col. 2 has traces of the last section of the Epeisodion. It is argued that Cassandra’s prophetic appearance does not take place during the altar scene, but before the murderous attack on Paris.
