Notes:
The headword, presumably extracted from the quotation given, is aorist infinitive of the verb
e)pibateu/w.
[1] cf.
Lexicon Vindobonense epsilon216;
Syntacticum Laurentianum. Adler also cites the
Syntacticum Gudianum, but no appropriate entry appears in the edition of Sturtz.
[2] A different form of the same verb is used to gloss the analogous form of the headword in
Etymologicum Gudianum s.v.
e)peba/teusen (=
Etymologicum Magnum 357.44; cf.
Lexicon Haimôdein 624.48).
[3] Abridged from the
Excerpta de legationibus of Constantine Porphyrogenitus 119.5-6, itself a quotation of
Procopius,
History of the Wars of Justinian 8.24.11 (web address 1). The same abridgment is also found at
omicron 811. The emperor Justinian (cf.
iota 446) sends Leontios (cf.
alpha 1563 note and PLRE IIIb s.v.
Leontius(5)) in 551 CE to negotiate with Theudibaldos (cf.
theta 298 and PLRE IIIb s.v. Theodebaldus(1)) for a Frankish withdrawal from parts of Italy seized earlier by Theudibert (cf.
theta 299 and PLRE IIIb s.v. Theodebertus(1)), father of Theudibaldos; cf. Kaldellis (518).
