Notes
- Same or similar entry in other lexica (see the references at Photius mu104 Theodoridis), and cf. also the scholia to Homer, Iliad 1.72, where the accusative singular
mantosu/nhn occurs. The lexicographers' genitive pluralmantosunw=n is perhaps quoted from Empedocles (fr. 112 Diels & Kranz, as preserved in Clement of Alexandria, Stromata 6.3.30.3).
