Notes

  1. In mythology. Apollodorus mentions no fewer than five women of this name, inc. daughters of Akastos (alpha 809) and Atlas (alpha 4368); for the latter cf. Pausanias 5.10.6. The Perseus Encyclopedia entry (web address 1) links to the relevant passages.
    Same entry, according to Adler, in the Ambrosian Lexicon.
    For lower-case (and differently-accented) steroph/, see sigma 1059.
