Notes:
Damascius, Life of Isidore fr. 126 Zintzen (77 Asmus); Photius Bibliotheca 341b.14-17: cf. tau 100, omega 258 (and kappa 902 for the boxing metaphor).
The unglossed headword is perfect active participle of kata/gnumi (cf. kappa 902), masculine genitive plural, evidently extracted from the quotation given.
