‘(unknown)’1.1.1Transmission
The four attestations of the personal name Πιγερδοταρι- are found within the same inscription dated to the 3rd century BCE (Brixhe & Özsait 2001a:156).

The personal name Πιγερδοταρι- was previously read as two separate names, i.e. Πιγερ and Δοταρις (Brixhe & Özsait 2001a:161-163). Adiego 2012b:18-20 argues convincingly for a single name, which designates in each instance of inscription 41 the name of the grandfather (followed by Brixhe 2016a:92), and he maintains the connection of the second member with the personal name Δωταρι-, established by Birxhe & Özsait (loc. cit.).

1.1.3Origin
The vowel of the first syllable represented by <o> in -δοταρι- differs from the one in Δωταρι-. The variance o/ω is encountered in other Pisidian words and it has been suggested to be purely graphic; cf. [

For the each member of the compound see *πιγερ- and *δωταρι-.
