Notes:
[1] Identical with [alpha 3913] Aristogiton. See generally RE Aristogeiton(2); NP Aristogeiton(2); and further below, under Bibliography.
[2] Adler (addenda) notes Gutschmid's proposed emendation to Defence of the generals in reply to Demosthenes.
[3] See under tau 595.
[4] Chronologically impossible, with almost two centuries separating them (for Aristogiton and Harmodius the C6 tyrannicides see alpha 3975, and OCD(4) 156-7); and there is no reason to think they were even related.
