Notes
- Entry lacking, Adler reports, in ms F.
Adler regards the unglossed headword as having come from Artemidorus 1.21, but surely there are likelier possibilities, e.g. Pindar, Nemean Odes 5.51 (which generated some scholia); also instances in e.g. Herodotus and Plato.
The verbteinw|da/w is unattested outside the Suda (the related nounteinw|do/s is doubtfully attested in ps.-Zonaras).
