Notes (3)
- 1The headword is either masculine accusative singular or neuter nominative/accusative singular of
muxai/tatos , an irregular superlative of the adjectivemu/xios (cf. under mu 1495). Possibly a cross-reference to kappa 2786; if not, quoted from somewhere (perhaps Josephus, who has four instances of it). LSJ entry at web address 1. [At Photius mu637 Theodoridis the editor prints this headword asmuxe/staton but expresses no confidence in it.] ↩ - 2Attested only here and, later, in Eustathius. ↩
- 3See e.g. Aelian, De natura animalium 10.34, numbering Aphrodite as one of the Penates, whom he calls
oi( qeoi\ mu/xioi . Other sources in LSJ s.v.mu/xios , II (web address 2). Aelian is available on Google Books (web address 3). ↩
