[1] Quotation (here and in ps.-Zonaras) unidentifiable; again in part, with a gloss, at sigma 910. [NB: Adler's note attributing the passage to Appian is wrongly placed here; see rather n.3 below.]
[2] For scala see also sigma 520.
[3] This "Massia" is Masinissa, king of Numidia, and the quotation is part of of Appian, Libyca 499-500: see in full at mu 244. The phrase from it highlighted here probably means that Masinissa needed no mounting-groom to help him onto his horse, and the passage is duly classified under that sense in LSJ s.v. a)naboleu/s I.1; however, as I.2 they proffer the sense 'stirrup', with the Suda and Eustathius cited. Eustathius (writing in the 12th century) does seem to be aptly cited on this point, since he recognises an anaboleus not only as a person but also as 'the iron thing into which some riders place their feet'. Here in the Suda, by contrast, we seem to have only two applications of the term: the mounting-groom, and a step-ladder for mounting the horse.
