Notes:
[1] Soo, too, according to Adler, in the Ambrosian Lexicon. But the headword itself is otherwise unattested, and 'Amymon' unidentifiable.
[2] Amymone in myth was the daughter of Danaus who went for water at Argos [Myth, Place], was rescued from a satyr, then seduced by Poseidon, who created a spring in commemoration and named it after her. See Apollodorus, Library 2.1.4.
