Notes
- Likewise, according to Adler, in the Ambrosian Lexicon (1346). The headword adjective as such (here in the nominative singular, masculine/feminine) appears only in grammars, lexica, and late hexameters (Nonnus, Dionysiaca 3.234; Oppian, Cynegetica 3.382), but other forms appear in Homer, and commentary on Homeric passages may be the ultimate origin of the present entry; cf. the scholia to Homer, Iliad 18.211 (web address 1), and 18.552 (web address 2), and Hesychius epsilon4604.
