Notes:
The headword is present participle, masculine nominative singular, of a)/gamai. Same or similar glossing in other lexica (references at Photius alpha99 Theodoridis). The headword is evidently quoted from somewhere (other than the quotation given here, which has the corresponding plural); extant possibilities begin with Xenophon and Plato.
[1] cf. alpha 138.
[2] Theophylact Simocatta, Histories 2.6.4, on a badly wounded Roman soldier at the Battle of Solachon in 586; cf. de Boor (80), Whitby (50), delta 653, delta 1638, lambda 272 end, upsilon 348, and chi 194. The battle took place south of Dara (cf. delta 68 note), in northern Mesopotamia, at the site of the present-day village of Saleh, Mardin Province, Turkey.
