[1] The headword is present infinitive of
o)rga/w, perhaps (though not necessarily) quoted from somewhere. Same glossing in
Photius (omicron436 Theodoridis) and elsewhere, and cf.
Timaeus'
Platonic Lexicon s.v.
o)rga|=.
[2] cf. scholion on
Thucydides 4.108.6 (where in fact the participle occurs in the genitive plural, not this nominative); also
Etymologicum Magnum 629.49.
[3] cf.
Photius,
Bibliotheca p.19b 38-42. See already at
theta 414. (On Oloros the father of
Thucydides, see -- besides that entry --
omicron 197.)
