Notes:
The headword is nominative singular; it may be a generic lexical reference or it may be extracted from a literary source, but not from any of the quotations given, where the word occurs in the accusative singular, dative singular, and accusative singular respectively.
[1] For this gloss along with the final sentence of the entry, Adler cites the scholia to Apollonius Rhodius, Argonautica 1.704, where the headword occurs in the genitive singular, but there is only a very general similarity.
[2] Arrian, Parthica FGrH 156 F157 (fr. 56 Roos-Wirth), drawn in Adler's view from the Excerpta of Constantine Porphyrogenitus. This quotation has already appeared at sigma 963.
[3] Quotation (also, in Adler's opinion, from the Excerpta) unidentifiable. [DW: Adler passes no comment, but 'child' seems improbable in this context.]
[4] Sophocles, Philoctetes 498-9.
[5] See general note above.
