Adler number: nu,225

Notes:
The headword, presumably extracted from the quotation given, is future active infinitive of the verb neoxmo/w (for which cf. nu 223, nu 224).
[1] For the first of these glosses cf. Hesychius nu371, glossing neoxmou/menoi with newterizo/menoi.
[2] Quotation unidentifiable (though its phrase a)sxo/lous dia\ to\n po/lemon o)/ntas, i.e. without the Suda's ga/r, occurs in Plutarch, Moralia [Aetia Romana et Graeca] 296C).
