Notes (1)

  1. Likewise in the Synagoge (sigma207) and Photius' Lexicon (sigma523 Theodoridis), and cf. the scholia to Homer, Iliad 1.28, where the phrase skh=ptron kai\ ste/mma qeoi=o occurs (web address 1): Agamemnon warns Chryses the priest that these may afford no protection against his wrath.
  2. 1The import of the second glossing term here, the neuter noun plh/rwma, is obscure; see LSJ s.v. for the range of attested meanings, none of which self-evidently apply; also Theodoridis on Photius. ↩
