Notes:
[1] Headword and gloss could be either present participles in the masculine/neuter dative plural or present indicatives in the third person plural. Either way, keladou=sin must be quoted from somewhere (other than the quotation which follows). For the verb cf. kappa 1280.
[2] Greek Anthology 6.159.1-4, Antipater of Sidon (the quotation has some gaps, and should be consistently in Doric dialect), the warrior Pherenikos dedicates his trumpet to Athena; cf. Gow and Page (vol. I, 12), (vol. II, 36), and additional excerpts from this epigram at delta 11 and epsilon 2979. Gow and Page (vol. II, 35) express doubts about the authenticity of the offering; cf. theta 555 and accompanying note.
