Notes:
[1] So too in other lexica; references at
Photius alpha1189 Theodoridis. From the
scholia to
Plato,
Sophist 259D, where the headword appears.
[2]
Aristophanes,
Acharnians 608 (web address 1), with scholion.
[3] Adler suggested
Aelian; but in fact, as the TLG reveals, a close approximation of
Procopius,
Secret History 12.27. See on this Theodoridis'
Photius edition, vol.II pp.XCI-XCII.
[4]
Agathias,
Histories 1.10; see already
alpha 1428.
