Notes:
[1] Likewise in
Timaeus'
Platonic Lexicon (and again in
Photius). Perhaps generated by the occurrence of the headword adjective in
Plato,
Republic 338D (where
Thrasymachus applies it to Socrates), though not necessarily so;
Timaeus' Lexicon does not confine itself to
Plato.
[2]
Aelian fr. 160 Domingo-Forasté (163 Hercher).
[3] Likewise, according to Adler, in the
Ambrosian Lexicon.
