Notes: 
[1] The headword, which has the same or similar glossing in other lexica (e.g. 
Hesychius epsilon202), is third person plural, aorist indicative active, of the verb 
e)gkataskh/ptw. It is evidently quoted from somewhere (other than the quotation given, which has the corresponding third person singular, with neuter plural subject); probably (as Latte on 
Hesychius suggests) 
Philo Judaeus, 
De vita contemplativa 2, its only independent attestation.
[2] 
Aelian fr. 286 Domingo-Forasté (288 Hercher); cf. 
lambda 465.
[3] This, also in ps.-
Zonaras, is not part of the 
Aelian fragment. For '
Varro' cf. 
omicron 767.
