Notes:
[1] Thus far, cf. Hesychius epsilon4805, Lexica Sequeriana 229.19, Photius Lexicon epsilon1553 (cf.1551), Etymologicum Gudianum 504.2 (= Etymologicum Magnum 449.49, Lexicon Haimodein 624.8); and cf. theta 306. The glosses offered do not seem to fit the context of the quotation very well (contrast Hesychius epsilon4794, and scholia to Thucydides ad loc.; see next note) and they may have been produced originally for commentary on a different passage. For the verb, see also epsilon 2031, epsilon 2032, epsilon 2331.
[2] A loose approximation of Thucydides 2.75.1 (web address 1). For Archidamos cf. alpha 4108.
