Notes
- This entry embraces both of the meanings of the adjective ektopios (cf. epsilon 664) noted by LSJ s.v. The initial gloss corresponds to meaning II there; but the quotation of Sophocles, Oedipus at Colonus 119, with comment (on the participle) from the scholia appended, introduces meaning I. See R.C. Jebb, Commentary ad loc. (
e)kto/pios instead ofe)k to/pou ), and cf. Oedipus Tyrannus 166 and 1340.
