Notes:
[1] Likewise or similarly in other lexica. The headword is accusative plural, evidently quoted from somewhere (perhaps Demosthenes 20.156 or 25.78, though there are other possibilities).
[2] Philostorgius, Historia ecclesiastica V.2a, p.67.25-6 Bidez-Winkelmann. For this episode cf. alpha 4450.
[3] This apparently logical connection is a non sequitur, since the entry now shifts without warning to classical Athens (echoing, from now on, Harpokration s.v. a)/page; cf. already alpha 2861).
[4] For whom see epsilon 1156.
