[1] Greek Anthology 6.264.1&3-4 (Mnasalces), on a shield dedicated to Apollo by Alexander; cf. Gow and Page, vol. I (141), vol. II (404), and a further extract from this epigram at alpha 661. Following an emendation of Salmasius (Claude de Saumaise, 1588-1653), Gow and Page read the relative pronoun here as a(=s (feminine genitive singular, Doric dialect) instead of as ai(=s (feminine dative plural), transmitted by both the Suda and the Anthologia Palatina (vol. I, 141).
[2] Greek Anthology 7.232.4 (Anyte or Antipater of Sidon), the epitaph of Philip's son Amyntor, who died in battle in Lydia; cf. Gow and Page, vol. I (40), vol. II (102), and another excerpt from this epigram at theta 384. Gow and Page (vol. I, 40) read sxw/n instead of e)xw/n. Lydia (lambda 783) is a region in western Asia Minor (present-day Turkey). On the question of attribution, Paton (130-131) credits the epigram to Antipater. Although they note that Stadtmüller and Baale also favored its attribution to Antipater on stylistic grounds, Gow and Page (vol. II, 102) counter that equally compelling elements of Anyte's style are present in the epigram. Moreover, Gow and Page note (ibid.) that if the epitaph is to a Macedonian -- as the names do somewhat suggest -- then around the time in which Anyte flourished in C3 BCE is a more likely time frame for a Macedonian soldier's death in Lydia than when Antipater lived and wrote some 150 years later. Thus, while still conceding room for doubt, Gow and Page (ibid.) find the attribution to the poih/tria Anyte more likely.
