*)ameiyo/meqa: a)ntapodw/somen.

Same entry in Photius and elsewhere; Hesychius has a parallel one in the subjective, i.e. a)meiyw/meqa glossed by a)ntapodw/swmen. If the present version is correct, possible sources for the headword include Dionysius of Halicarnassus, Roman Antiquities 1.58.3, and Appian, Civil War 4.12.100.
