Notes (2)

  1. 1The headword is accusative plural of fora/ (phi 580). It is identically or similarly glossed in other lexica and must be quoted from somewhere; there are numerous possibilities. ↩
  2. 2For this rare word see LSJ s.v., II. (Adler's note compares Artemidorus 4.56, for a manuscript variant on the phrase i(/ppoi forba/des (cf. phi 583) there.) ↩
