Notes
- On Amphiaraos and his shrine at Oropus (between Attica and Boiotia), see generally OCD(4) pp.72-3.
The present headword is the accusative case of the deity's own name*)amfia/rews (as in Sophocles, Electra 837 - but not confined to Attic: see also e.g. Herodotus 1.46). The other word, neuter nominative or accusative, refers to the shrine.
