Notes
- Same entry elsewhere: see the references at Photius, Lexicon omicron500 Theodoridis, where the editor suggests that the headword -- present participle, masculine genitive singular, of the verb
o)rniqeu/omai -- is quoted from Josephus (Against Apion 1.202).
cf. generally omicron 611, omicroniota 160, omicroniota 161, omicroniota 162, omicroniota 163.
