[2] Thespiades is the eponymous founder of Thespiai (
theta 276,
theta 277) in Boeotia, central Greece. As to the quotation itself, in the accusative plural, Adler suggested
Nicolaus of Damascus (
nu 393), and this is taken up and confirmed by Favuzzi [below] in his study of eleven Suda entries -- cf.
delta 1591,
epsilon 935,
epsilon 1539,
epsilon 3022,
theta 274,
theta 412,
kappa 2029,
pi 1697,
pi 2069,
pi 2678 -- which all in his view relate to Heracles and all come from
Nicolaus.
