Notes (1)

  1. 1Likewise or similarly in other lexica; references at Photius pi4 Theodoridis, where the editor suggests that the headword -- actually feminine genitive singular of this adjective -- is taken from Xenophon, Cyropaedia 8.5.28 (on Cyaxares' daughter, so beautiful (pagka/lhs genome/nhs) that Cyrus married her). ↩
