Lewis & Short

Parsing inflected forms may not always work as expected. If the following does not give the correct word, try Latin Words or Perseus.

Măcĕtae (Măcĕdae), ārum, m., = Μακέται.

  1. I. (As a less usual form for Μακεδόνες,) Macedonians: Macetae locupletissimo imperio aucti, Gell. 9, 3, 1.
    Gen. plur. Măcĕtūm. Stat. S. 4, 6, 106; Sil. 14, 5; Luc. 2, 647; Claud. ap. Rufin. 2, 279; Aus. de Clar. Urb. 2, 9.
  2. II. (Because Antiochus the Great was a descendant of Seleucus Nicator) = Syri, Sil. 13, 878.
