Meaning nowhere.1 Teleclides in Hesiod [sc. uses the word].2
Aelian [writes]: "but he kills them and strips them of all they brought. But there was ornament and equipment not at all contemptible for the skill of each."3 And elsewhere: "they bring testimony not at all insignificant."4

Greek original · Adler’s text

Οὐδαμῆ· ἀντὶ τοῦ οὐδαμόθι. Τηλεκλείδης Ἡσιόδῳ. Αἰλιανός· ὁ δὲ ἀποκτείνει αὐτοὺς καὶ περισυλοῖ ὅσους ἐπηγάγοντο. ἦν δὲ κόσμος καὶ σκευὴ περὶ τὴν τέχνην τὴν ἑκατέρου οὐδαμῆ εὐκαταφρόνητα. καὶ αὖθις· καὶ μαρτύρια ἐπάγονται οὐδαμῆ ἄσημα.

  3. 3Aelian fr. 170 Domingo-Forasté (167 Hercher); quoted again at pi 1314, where the verb is better spelled (perisula=|) and the neuter o(/sa is read instead of the masculine o(/sous. ↩
