Notes

  1. Several holders of it are known. The one who has generated this entry is probably the dissident Athenian mentioned in Aristophanes, Birds 766, who provoked comment in the scholia there; but see also (e.g.) the Argive in Xenophon, Hellenica 7.1.41, and a character in the Amatorius (Dialogue on Love) of Plutarch.
