[Accusative of]
a)ndraka/s. [Meaning] one man at a time, separately.
Cratinus in
Herdsmen [sc. uses the word].[1]
Thucydides calls [this] the same and [its] opposite.[2]
Alternatively
a)ndraka/s [means] in groups of ten men.[3]

The first part of this entry is also in
Photius, but the headword there is nominative
a)ndraka/s.
Hesychius also has an entry with that headword, generated by its occurrence in
Homer,
Odyssey 13.14; see further below.
[1]
Cratinus fr. 19 Kock, now 21 K.-A.
[2] Something is wrong here:
Thucydides does not use this word. Editors note with approval the suggestion of C.J. Blomfield (1786-1857) that this sentence belongs with
alpha 2699.
[3] From the
scholia to
Homer,
Odyssey 13.14, where the word occurs.
