Notes:
[1] Agathias, Histories 1.4.
[2] For 'Theudertos', again at theta 300, read Theudibertos (theta 299); so Kuster.
[3] Probably extracted from the quotation which follows (but another possibility is Herodotus 1.168); and the glosses are Homeric.
[4] Aelian fr. 56e Domingo-Forasté (53 Hercher); see further at epsilon 3559.
