Notes:
The headword adjective is extracted from the quotation given.
[1] Greek Anthology 6.153.1-2 (Anyte), which has *)Eriaspi/da ui(o/s, *Kleu/botos ["son of Eriaspidas, Kleubotos"]. The Suda garbles this again at epsilon 2894. On this epigram, the dedication of a cauldron to Athena, see Gow and Page (vol. I, 35-36) and (vol. II, 92-93). Gow and Page note that the received names, the Doric *)Eriaspi/das and the Ionic *Kleu/botos, do not appear to occur elsewhere (ibid.).
