Notes
- Same or similar entry in other lexica.
The headword phrase is abbreviated from one in a comic fragment: 'trusty child of Therikles' (Theopompus fr. 32 Kock, now 33 K.-A.). The phrase is quoted by Athenaeus, Deipnosophists 11.470F [11.41 Kaibel], who also has a lot of other material on the Corinthian potter Therikles: see esp. 11.470E-472D [11.41-44 Kaibel], a lavish dossier of extracts on the therikleos kylix; also 11.467D [11.32], 11.475F [11.50], 11.478B [11.55], 11.502D-E [11.108].
See also theta 352, theta 354.
