δημιουργός

• δημῐοεργός (dēmioergós) – Epic

From δήμῐος (dḗmios, “public”) +‎ ἔργον (érgon, “labor, work”).

δημῐουργός • (dēmiourgós) m (genitive δημῐουργοῦ); second declension

1. one who works for the people, a skilled workman, handicraftsman

   7th-6th centuries BC, Homeric Hymn to Hermes :

   ὀρφναίη δ’ ἐπίκουρος ἐπαύετο δαιμονίη νύξ, ἡ πλείων, τάχα δ’ ὄρθρος ἐγίγνετο δημιοεργός

   orphnaíē d’ epíkouros epaúeto daimoníē núx, hē pleíōn, tákha d’ órthros egígneto dēmioergós

   but his dark ally the divine night was almost over, and dawn the craftsman was quickly coming
   Note: dawn is called ‘the craftsman’ because it wakes craftsmen and other people and makes them turn to their crafts.

   497 BCE – 405 BCE, Sophocles, Ajax 992:

   ἆρ’ οὐκ Ἐρινὺς τοῦτ’ ἐχάλκευσεν ξίφος κἀκεῖνον Ἅιδης, δημιουργὸς ἄγριος?

   âr’ ouk Erinùs toût’ ekhálkeusen xíphos kakeînon Háidēs, dēmiourgòs ágrios?

   Didn't the Fury forge this sword and Hades, the cruel craftsman, that [belt]?

   around 1st century AD, Hippocrates, παραγγελίαι 2, (author unknown):

   κάρτα γὰρ μεγάλην ὠφελίην περιποιήσει τοῖς γε νοσέουσι καὶ τοῖς τούτων δημιουργοῖς.

   kárta gàr megálēn ōphelíēn peripoiḗsei toîs ge noséousi kaì toîs toútōn dēmiourgoîs.

   For it will confer a big help to the sick anyway and to practitioners in this field.
