Notes:
[1] Likewise or similarly in other lexica. According to Theodoridis on
Photius s.v. (
Lexicon epsilon1610), the headword is generated by a (textually unstable) genitive plural in
Alexis (fr. 112 K.-A., 107 Kock).
[2] No. Instead, reckoned to come from
Priscus (
pi 2301): fr.53 Bornmann. (According to de Boor, Kuster thought that the name "Priskos" had been altered to "Prokopios". The attribution to
Priscus is doubted by de Boor himself.)

theta 145).
