Notes
- The headword noun
ko/llh (nominative case) is an Ionicism for the normalko/lla . It occurs in Galen, In Hippocratis librum de fracturis commentarii Vol 18b p. 398 Kühn.
The adjective used to gloss it here itself glossed in the following sentence. The Suda's accusativekollh/enta occurs in Homer, Iliad 15.389 (cf. e.g. Hesychius kappa3336), so there may be corruption and/or over-abbreviation here.
The glosskolliw=n appears to be the present active participle of an otherwise unattested variant,kollia/w , of the verbkolla/w .
