Notes

  1. The headword (a single word in the Greek) is the aorist active infinitive of the verb u(peropli/zw, attested only here but presumably quoted from somewhere. For the aorist middle optative u(peropli/ssaito, see Homer, Odyssey 17.268 (web address 1).
    For a related word, where the military element is left implicit, see upsilon 329 and upsilon 331.
