[2] This headword, Nemeios, is attested in a range of writers which includes
Euripides and
Thucydides; and despite the supplementary part of the present entry, what they all mean by it is someone or something (e.g. the mythological lion) from
Nemea in the NE Peloponnese (
nu 149,
nu 150, etc.).
[3] This material derives from
Stephanus of
Byzantium s.v.
Nemea, who adds to his material on Peloponnesian
Nemea the statement that there was another
Nemea (otherwise unattested) in Lokris, with this ethnikon.
