Notes
- Same or similar entries in other lexica; and cf. a scholion on Homer, Iliad 1.129, where Troy is called 'well-walled' (
eu)tei/xeon : web address 1). For parallel usage, see Euripides, Andromache 1010 (web address 2). But the source of the present headword phrase itself, in the dative case, is unidentifiable.
