Notes (1)
- Same or similar glossing in other lexica (references at Photius pi984 Theodoridis), and in e.g. a scholion on Lucian (272.22 Rabe).
See generally on this adjective LSJ s.v., and cf. kappa 2733, xi 169, sigma 981, phi 180. - 1
*(ra/kion usually means a rag, but that sense is clearly not appropriate here. ↩
