Archebuleus

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Archebuleus (Greek. Archebouleion , hence Archebuleum is) in the ancient Verslehre one after the Hellenistic poet Archebulos named relatively rare aeolian verse with the metric scheme

◡◡ — ◡◡ — ◡◡ — ◡◡ — ◡——

According to Hephaestion, the verse consists of 4 anapasts and a Bacchius (on 4+ba), but the first two abbreviations would appear to be replaced by a length or a single abbreviation , so you actually have anzeps at the beginning:

× —◡◡ — ◡◡ — ◡◡ — ◡——

The only verse recorded by Archebulos may not be authentic and is quoted to demonstrate meter. The verse can be found in Callimachus' engravings .
