= Synagoge sigma110, Photius sigma310 Theodoridis; cf. Hesychius sigma950, and several Homeric scholia, notably to Iliad 13.59, where the headword (a diminutive neuter noun) occurs in the dative case. Other possible connections are to Callimachus, Hecale fr. 355 Pfeiffer (cf. omicron 161), and Greek Anthology 6.83.5-6 (where again the dative of the headword occurs; see beta 50). For the headword see also sigma 578 and, for the gloss, sigma 583.
