Translation

The women's cult-association among the Cyzicenes worshipping Artemis goes by this name, according to Aelian.¹
Also [sc. attested is] Dolon, the one in Homer.² And it keeps [sc. omega in the oblique cases].

Greek original · Adler’s text

Δόλων· οὕτω καλεῖται ὁ παρὰ τοῖς Κυζικηνοῖς τὴν Ἄρτεμιν θεραπεύων γυναικεῖος θίασος, ὥς φησιν Αἰλιανός. καὶ Δόλων, ὃ παρὰ Ὁμήρῳ. καὶ φυλάττει.
