Notes:
= Synagoge epsilon710 (Lexica Segueriana 231.4); Hesychius epsilon5001; Photius, Lexicon epsilon1647. Ultimately derived from the scholia to Homer, Iliad 21.204 (web address 1), where the headword occurs. For further comparanda and sources see the apparatus to Theodoridis' edition of Photius.
Although it is glossed with a noun here, in Homer and elsewhere the word is always used adjectivally.
