Notes:
[1] Likewise in the Synagoge (sigma301) and Photius (sigma717 Theodoridis), and cf. already Hesychius sigma2350 s.v. sumfe/resqai. The headword must be quoted from somewhere but is too commonplace to track down.
[2] Quotation (transmitted, in Adler's view, via the Excerpta Constantini Porphyrogeniti) unidentifiable, but cf. Eutropius, Breviarium 3.9, on the battle (218 BCE) of the River Trebia (now Trebbia, in northern Italy, Barrington Atlas map 39 grid F3; cf. OCD(4) s.v. Trebia).
[3] This note, borrowed from delta 525, is lacking (Adler reports) in mss AFV.
