The Megalai Ehoiai (Ancient Greek: Μεγάλαι Ἠοῖαι, Ancient: [meɡálai ɛːhói.ai]), or Great Ehoiai,[1] is a fragmentary Greek epic poem that was popularly, though not universally, attributed to Hesiod during antiquity.[2] Like the more widely read Hesiodic Catalogue of Women, the Megalai Ehoiai was a genealogical poem structured around the exposition of heroic family trees among which myths concerning many of their members were narrated.[3] At least seventeen fragments of the poem are transmitted by quotations in other ancient authors and two second-century CE papyri,[4] but given the similarities between the Megalai Ehoiai and Catalogue of Women it is possible that some fragments attributed to the Catalogue actually derive from the less popular Hesiodic work.[5] Indeed, most of the scholarly attention devoted to the poem has been concerned with its relation to the Catalogue and whether or not the title "Megalai Ehoiai" in fact referred to a single, independent epic.
