Notes
- The headword is an archaic, epic, and poetic form; in Ionic dialects it became *
i(/lhos and then by quantitative metathesisi(/lews (as in the first gloss) ori(/leos (attested in Herodotus). See LSJ s.v. (web address 1) and cf. iota 307. This entry derives from a scholion on Homer, Iliad 1.583, where the headword occurs (web address 2).
cf. generally iota 287.
