This work examines the traditional language of the cyclical Thebais fragments by studying linguistic aod formulaic data with a view towards establishing its chronology relative to the two great Homeric copies. From this analysis we conclude that 1) there are no definitive data to establish a post-Homeric character for the poem; 2) the concurrence of various non-probative data leads us to consider as more likely a post-Homeric date for the poem's written text; and 3) the poem's fragments show a language sufficiently traditional for us to conclude that its written transmission cannot have occurred very much later than Homer.
