Notes (1)
- For Sarpedon, commander of the Lycians in Homer's Iliad, see OCD4 s.v. In Homer the name is usually declined with the stem
*sarphdo/n- but three times with*sarph/dont- .
['Sarpedon' in omicron 218 appears to be an error] - 1Besides the person of this name note also the toponym Sarpedon, in Thrace (cf. under sigma 145). ↩
