Notes
- Same entry in Photius (theta216) and other lexica. The neuter plural headword is transmitted as
qre/pta , which is independently attested in this sense only in Quintus Smyrnaeus 11.89, where it may be a mistake for or a variant ofqre/ptra . In any event,qre/ptra occurs in a more mainstream passage -- Homer, Iliad 4.478 -- from which the present entry is taken to derive.
cf. generally theta 474.
