[74] It would seem natural to write “Διὶ φίλε” as two words (H. G. § 124 f), but for the analogy of “διιπετής”, where the second element cannot have been independent. Probably, therefore, the combination was at an early date felt as a real compound. So also we have “ἀρηΐφατος” beside “ἀρηϊκτάμενος” (“Ἄρηϊ κτάμενος”), “πυριηκής” beside “δουρικλυτός”, etc.
