Notes

  1. Same entry in Photius (nu218 Theodoridis, where the editor does not punctuate after 'boys'), briefer one already in Hesychius (nu563); and see Glossarium Italioticum 243 Kassel-Austin. The headword -- here in the nominative plural, presumably quoted from somewhere -- is unattested outside lexicography.
