Notes (2)

  1. 1Likewise or similarly in other lexica. The headword is feminine nominative singular of this adjective; it must be extracted from somewhere (other than the quotation given here, which has the corresponding masculine). Cf. phi 594, phi 595. ↩
  2. 1From Aelian fr. 48 Hercher (fr. 51a Domingo-Forasté). The fragment is about Pythagoras, the tyrant of Ephesus, on whom see pi 3122 (which also includes the present passage). ↩
