Notes:
[1] Either literally so or perhaps a shallow receptacle like the present-day saucer. See generally LSJ s.v. ko/gxh.
[2] Callimachus, Hecale fr.246 (with comment from the scholia there); the second half of the line reappears at kappa 1372. The Suda's kele/bh, nominative, needs to be accusative (the iota subscript in the online text is not in Adler).
