Πελιοί

Notes

1. Likewise or similarly in other lexica; references at Photius pi552 Theodoridis. The headword is masculine nominative plural of this adjective. It must be quoted from somewhere, perhaps from the medical writer Diphilos of Siphnos↗ (C3 BCE), quoted in Athenaeus, Deipnosophists 22.61D (2.59 Kaibel): one risks death by eating mushrooms which are "black and livid and hard".
   cf. generally pi 945, pi 946.
