    For a hyperbolic \(m\)-order homogeneous equation with time depending coefficients, the well posedness of the Cauchy problem is investigated. The main result of the paper is: if the coefficients are indefinite differentiable on \([0,T]\) and the characteristic roots are real and satisfy a specific inequality, the Cauchy problem is well posed in every Gevrey class. The proof is based on the fact that if the inequality holds, then equation admits a quasi-symmetrizer, which can only degenerate in a diagonal way. For \(m=2\) and 3 one explicitly writes the quasi- symmetrizer.
