Notes (1)
- The nominative singular of the headword is attested only here, but other forms occur, e.g., in Apollonius Rhodius, Argonautica 3.1266 (accusative singular). The commonest form is the neuter plural
qamina/ , used adverbially; example at sigma 974.
cf. generally theta 34, theta 35, theta 36, theta 37. - 1Neither this (nominative singular masculine) nor any other form of the superlative of
qamino/s is attested elsewhere, apart from (according to Adler) the Ambrosian Lexicon (18). ↩
