Notes
- The headword, found only here, is a Greek form of the Latin campidoctor, one who exercised soldiers on the Campus Martius (Vegetius etc.: see Lewis & Short s.v.). Alternatively, E.A. Sophocles' Lexicon suggests campiductor, meaning
o(dhgo/s . The usual Greek transliteration iskampidou/ktwr , but the related nounkampidikto/ria , a neuter plural, occurs in Constantine Porphyrogenitus, De cerimoniis.
