A LONG PERIOD speculation has been rife about the origin of the name Europe. One must write "speculation" rather than "scholarship" because dearth of material has made a scholarly approach extremely difficult. As a result, only one article on the subject can be cited, and we are otherwise dependent upon paragraphs in encyclopedias and statements in general works. To collect and to review all these opinions would demand some pages of text, and would in the end prove to be little more than a compilation of guesses. The writer therefore begs the acceptance of his statement that he has consulted a large number of these brief notices and considers nearly ap of them to be of no value, and those which may contain some possible value to be lacking in scholarly demonstration. 1 The writer intends here an approach which is to some extent new, though in the end he will support one of the old theories
