Notes
- Same entry in ps.-Zonaras 1822, and Adler also cites Lexicon Ambrosianum 479-80. The adjective, presented here in the nominative singular masculine, is attested in ps.-Herodian, Epimerismi 188.10, but literary attestations are confined to later Greek, e.g. John of Damascus, Encomium of St. Barbara the Martyr 13.
