Notes
- Same entry in Photius. The headword (otherwise unattested) is understood as pluperfect active, third person plural, of
i(/sthmi ; but this would normally be spelled with-amen . It could also be imperfect of the late present-tense forme(sth/kw . See LSJ s.v.i(/sthmi , and cf. epsiloniota 316.
