α4429Αὐθιγενής
born here, native to this place
[Meaning] autochthonous, genuine. "'I am Persian, and from the time of my fathers a Persian native to this place, yes master. To defile fire is more grievous to us than a difficult death.'"
Αὐθιγενής· αὐτόχθων, γνήσιος. Πέρσης εἰμὶ καὶ ἐκ πατέρων Πέρσης αὐθιγενής, ναὶ δέσποτα· πῦρ δὲ μιῆναι ἡμῖν τοῦ χαλεποῦ πικρότερον θανάτου.
