Notes
- Likewise or similarly in other lexica (references at Photius pi755 Theodoridis) and cf. also a scholion on Homer, Odyssey 1.426, where this adjective occurs in the dative (web address 1). The headword itself,
peri/skepton , is probably extracted from Callimachus, Epigrams 5.8; cf. Etymologicum Magnum 664.49-50.
