Notes (1)
- From an unidentifiable account of early Roman history. ('Under the Fabii' presumably refers to alleged events of 480-474 BCE (Livy 2.44ff), when the men of Etruscan Veii occupied Rome's Janiculum hill and the Fabian gens countered by fortifying the Cremera -- where almost all of them were annihilated.) The headword is aorist passive of
surrh/gnumi , third person singular: cf. sigma 1509. - 1Greek idiom says 'greatest'. ↩
