Headword:
Anateinamenos
Adler number: alpha,2101
Translated headword: having held out as a threat
Vetting Status: high
Translation: [Meaning he] having threatened.
"The king, although he held out many threats against those who had participated in the transaction, did nothing."[1]
And elsewhere: "the Egyptians, having held out threats and mockery, slew four hundred and eighty in the sight of so many men and women."[2]
So a)nateina/menoi [means they] having held out threats combined with violence.
Also [sc. attested is the phrase] a)natei/nas th\n yuxh/n ["having exalted his soul"], [meaning] having directed it on high and to the sight of the gods.[3]

Notes:
The headword participle is perhaps (though not necessarily) extracted from the first quotation given. For the glossing cf.
Hesychius s.v.
a)natei/nasqai.

Polybius fr. 109 Büttner-Wobst. Büttner-Wobst notes (p. 529) that Valckenaer attributed this fragment to
Polybius.
[2] Quotation (transmitted, in Adler's view, via the
Excerpta Constantini Porphyrogeniti) unidentifiable.
[3] Similarly in
Timaeus'
Platonic Lexicon and in
Photius. The phrase itself must be quoted from somewhere but is unidentifiable.
