Notes
- The headword, a nominative plural, is presumably quoted from somewhere (perhaps Thucydides 3.97.3: cf. upsilon 140). Same entry in the Synagoge (upsilon33) and Photius' Lexicon (upsilon62 Theodoridis); similar one elsewhere, e.g. Etymologicum Gudianum s.v.
u(pagwgh\ and Etymologicum Magnum s.v.u(pa/gei . In the Suda see also upsilon 133, upsilon 136, upsilon 137. For the headword cf., besides upsilon 140, upsilon 143.
