Notes (1)

  1. There are no close parallels for this entry in prior lexicography. The only place in pre-Hellenistic literature where the headword occurs in this nominative singular form (also under sigma 410) is [Aristotle], Problemata 917a8 (but other cases appear in classical authors).
  2. 1This supplementary material is noted by Adler as a marginal addition in manuscript A. ↩
