Notes
- It occurs more than once in mythology (e.g. a son of Ares in Apollodorus, Library 1.7.7: web address 1); but in the light of tau 996 the one in question here is presumably O. 'the three-eyed', the Aetolian associate of the Heraclidae, who colonized Elis. See Pausanias 5.3.5ff (web address 2); Strabo 8.3.30 (web address 3); and in brief OCD4, under Heraclidae.
