Headword:
*palamh/dhs
Adler number: pi,45
Translated headword: Palamedes
Vetting Status: high
Translation: "Me of course, I know a scheme[1] out of the Palamedes.[2] Just like that man, I will write [on] the oars and throw them." Just like Oiax[3] wrote [about] Palamedes to his father Nauplios on various oars and threw them into the sea, so that at least one reached Nauplios. "So where might I get oars? [What if] I were to write on these images here, instead of oars, and throw them? Much better. At any rate these are wooden and so were they."

scholia to 771 there; see also
