Notes (3)

  1. 1An odd gloss at first sight, but the headword adjective, here in the feminine nominative singular, occurs as an epithet of Artemis: see esp. Homer, Iliad 20.70 and 21.511 (web address 1 for the latter); rendered in A.T. Murray's translation as "of the echoing chase". ↩
  2. 2Same or simuilar glossing in other lexica (and Homeric scholia); see the references at Photius kappa547 Theodoridis. ↩
  3. 3The literal meaning of the adjective; and cf. kappa 1279, kappa 1281. ↩
