Notes:
The headword (comparative of
atimos, masculine accusative singular) is presumably extracted from the end of the first quotation given.
[1] Quotation unidentifiable via the TLG. (Adler's guess was the
Epistles of the Emperor Julian.)
[2]
Greek Anthology 7.727.3-4 (
Theaetetus), with
*mi/nw, genitive of the name Minos; the Suda corrupts this to
min. For Thersites, the proverbial nobody (in
Homer), see
theta 257; for Minos,
mu 1092.
