διώκτης. The LXX compound ἐργοδιώκτης (Exod 35 a@/) is found in the same sense in the correspondence of the ‘‘architect ” Kleon, P Petr II. 4(1)? (B.c. 255-4), where certain quarrymen complain that they are being ill-treated by the “anger” Apollonius, by being kept at work at quarries of hard stone—aStkotpeba ὑπὸ ᾿Απολλωνίου τοῦ ἐργοδιώκτου ἐμβαλὼν ἡμᾶς εἰς τὴν στερεὰν πέτραν.
