Notes (1)

  1. Both these definitions are attested only in lexicography and both presuppose an etymological connection with au)lh/, court. For the kithara see generally kappa 1590.
  2. 1Here in the accusative case, so evidently quoted from somewhere. For the word in another sense see already under alpha 4437. ↩
