Notes:
[1] Paraphrase or approximation of a longer quotation ascribed to Arrian at
theta 310, and combined with a quotation at
alpha 4495 to form Arrian,
Parthica fr. 34 Roos-Wirth (cf. FGrH 156 F149).
[2]
Thucydides 7.75.4 (web address 1), with
a)poleipo/menoi in place of
Thucydides'
u(poleipo/menoi, producing little difference in meaning.
[3] For this gloss cf. the
scholia to Thuc. 7.75.4.
[4] The quotation (containing not the headword but a participial form of a related verb; cf. generally
epsilon 2031,
epsilon 2032,
epsilon 2329,
epsilon 2331) is unidentifiable; there are instances of
sunepeufhme/w, though, in
Diodorus Siculus.
