Notes:
[1] Likewise or similarly in other lexica; references at
Photius sigma918 Theodoridis. See generally LSJ s.v. on the adjective
sxolai=os and the noun
sxolaio/ths. The lexicographers'
sxolai=on and the two forms of the comparative must be quoted from somewhere. Theodoridis offers options for
sxolai/teron in
Thucydides (2.75.6, 4.47.3, 7.81.2; cf.
sigma 1800),
Plato (
Theaetetus 206D,
Republic 10.610D),
Xenophon (
Anabasis 1.5.9) and
Demosthenes (21.221).

delta 431 (q.v.), on
Demetrius Poliorcetes in
Athens in the late fourth century BCE.
