Thespians
Citizens of Thespiae are called Thespians. The common noun thespian meaning "actor" comes from the legendary first actor named Thespis, and not the city. Both Thespis and Thespiae, however, are cognate with the verb thespízein (θεσπίζειν), "to institute"; these words as well as the related thesmós (θεσμός), "institution", and thesis (θέσις), "position", are ultimately derived from the verb tithénai (τιθέναι), "to put in place".
