Note:
Taken from Photius phi239 (itself from Pausanias the Atticist phi9), where however Theodoridis presents the words to\ yeu=dos as part of the headword (despite suspecting that they are not). See also the scholia to Plato, Republic 414C, where the phrase *Foinikiko/n ti occurs. LSJ s.v. Further references in LSJ s.v. sparto/s (b) and *Foinikiko/s, and cf. under kappa 17.
