Notes:
From a gloss on
Herodotus 1.24.5, where the headword phrase occurs (in the story of Arion [
Author,
Myth]:
alpha 3886).
For the meanings of
nomos as a fixed style of composition and of harmony see
nu 478 and
alpha 3977. On this particular
nomos and the association of
Terpander (
tau 354) with "seven
nomoi" see
omicron 575 and
omicron 573. The citharodic
nomoi (for the stringed cithara) are distinguished from those for the pipe.
