[1] Likewise in
Hesychius and other lexica. The headword must be quoted from somewhere -- but not the quotation given here, which has aorist, not imperfect. Extant instances begin with one in
Plutarch (
Alexander 55.2, using Callisthenes: FGrH 124 F7) but by far the largest number of them is in Cyril of Alexandra.
[2] Quotation -- first part also in ps.-
Zonaras -- unidentifiable; Adler (addenda) suggests
Aelian.
