Notes:
[1] For the verb
saleu/w see also
sigma 53. Its present indicative active (third person singular), here, is presumably extracted from the quotation which immediately follows.
[2] Tentatively attributed to
Damascius by Adler, and adopted as such by Zintzen (as
Life of Isidore fr. 399); however, as C. Theodoridis shows in his
Photius edition (vol.II p.LXXXVIII) this is actually an abridgement of
Josephus,
Jewish War 5.88.
[3]
Aelian fr. 319 Domingo-Forasté (322 Hercher).
[4]
Aelian fr. 326 Domingo-Forasté (328 Hercher: here abridged); cf.
