Notes (2)
- The headword is the middle voice of
perii/sthmi ; the quotations illustrate, respectively, the active and the middle. - 1From 'FGrHist 115', Adler initially and tentatively suggested, i.e. Theopompus of Chios; however, none of his extant fragments match this unidentifiable (and textually suspect:
au)to/n needs emendation to eitherau)tw|= orau)tw=n ) phrase. In her consolidated addenda and corrigenda Adler altered the suggested attribution to FGrH 151, an anonymous Alexander-history. ↩ - 2Again, unidentifiable. (Adler suggested Symeon Metaphrastes.) ↩
