Notes (2)
- = Photius rho39 Theodoridis.
- 1The headword is aorist active infinitive of
r(a/ssw /r(a/ttw . According to LSJ, the alpha is probably long by nature, since the Ionic form isr(h/ssw (also in Koine). In that case, the aorist infinitive would be expected to have a circumflex accent (r(a=cai ). ↩ - 2Taken by some to mean Apollodorus of Athens FGrH 244 (F270, contextless); however, there were also 2 comic poets of this name, A. of Gela (alpha 3405) and A. of Karystos, and the latter has been invoked here (fr. 22 Kock, now 23 K.-A.). For the sense, compare
r(a/cantes in Demosthenes 54.8. ↩
