- οὐθείς
- οὐθείς, οὐθέν, later form for οὐδείς, οὐδέν, found in [dialect] Att. Inscrr. from 378 B.C. onwards along with οὐδείς, which it supersedes entirely from about 325 B.C. to 100 B.C. (forty examples of θ, none of δ) ; οὐθείς is in a majority in Ptolemaic papyri up to about 130 B.C., after which οὐδείς begins to be common, but does not prevail until i A. D.; the evidence of non-[dialect] Att. Inscrr. is in general agreement with the foregoing; codd. of Th., Antipho, And., Lys., and Hdt. never have οὐθείς, but the θ forms are freq. in those of Pl., X., Isoc., D., Hyp., Arist., and Thphr., freq. as variants for the δ forms; also in Hellenistic writers, Teles, Plb., etc.; the frequency of θ forms in the uncials of LXX varies roughly according to the date (known or probable) of the translation of the book in question (though the δ forms are in a large majority in the LXX as a whole); the θ forms are rare in codd. of Str. and later writers.
