Notes

  1. If this is intended to be the name of the Trojan hero (OCD(4) s.v.), it is usually spelled Aineias in the Iliad (and cf. generally alphaiota 215). Nevertheless, for 'Aineas' see, apparently, Iliad 13.541; Sophocles fr. 373; Radt; Euripides, Rhesus 85, 585. The same form is used elsewhere of other homonyms, e.g. Thucydides 4.119.2 (a Corinthian signatory to a cease-fire); Acts 9.32-34 (a chronic invalid at Lydda cured by Peter).
