Notes:
[1]
Diodorus Siculus fr. 6 Walton (30 Dindorf).
[2] (Adler cites
Ambrosian Lexicon 1052.) This and the participle which follows are again quotations, presumably.
[3] Adler tentatively attributed this quotation to
Aelian. In fact, as a TLG search reveals, it has been identified as a fragment of John of
Antioch (295 Roberto).
[4] Quotation not identified by Adler but identifiable via the TLG as
Procopius,
History of the Wars of Justinian 1.25.3 (the participle, though, should be singular; cf. web address 1), on John the Cappadocian, more fully at
iota 469; cf. Kaldellis (68) and
alpha 2407.
