Notes
- Likewise in Hesychius. (Entry lacking, Adlert reports, in Suda mss AFV.)
The headword, a poetic noun/adjective, need not of course have the precise sense indicated by the gloss, but the context may require it. For an instance where, given the context, it means sister, see Euripides, Iphigenia in Tauris 795 & 805.
