Adler number: upsilon,422

Vetting Status: high

*(uph=kto: h( de\ *libani/a to\ qrasu\ au)tou= kai\ gennai=on a)poko/yasa ai)xma/lwton u(ph=kto. a)nti\ tou= u(phga/geto.
Notes:
[1] Quotation (transmitted, in Adler's view, via the Excerpta Constantini Porphyrogeniti) unidentifiable. (There is no obvious basis for Valckenaer's attribution of it, noted by Adler, to Aelian. Adler also notes Bernhardy's view that the name Libania is corrupt.)
[2] The headword verb, a pluperfect middle of u(pa/gw, third person singular, is here glossed with the aorist middle of the same verb.
Keywords: biography; definition; dialects, grammar, and etymology; ethics; women
