Notes
- Same entry, according to Adler, in the Ambrosian Lexicon.
The headword is derived frome)rei/kw , 'I rend/pound/shatter' (cf. epsilon 2952, etc.) As a proper noun -- spelled either Erikodes or Ereikodes -- it is an alternative name for Er(e)ikoussa, one of the seven small Aeolian islands off the north coast of Sicily; see e.g. the scholia to Homer, Odyssey 10.1.
