Notes:
[1] Thus far, cf.
Hesychius epsilon4805,
Lexica Sequeriana 229.19,
Photius Lexicon epsilon1553 (cf.1551),
Etymologicum Gudianum 504.2 (=
Etymologicum Magnum 449.49,
Lexicon Haimodein 624.8); and cf.
theta 306. The glosses offered do not seem to fit the context of the quotation very well (contrast
Hesychius epsilon4794, and
scholia to
Thucydides ad loc.; see next note) and they may have been produced originally for commentary on a different passage. For the verb, see also
epsilon 2031,
epsilon 2032,
epsilon 2331.
[2] A loose approximation of
Thucydides 2.75.1 (web address 1). For Archidamos cf.
alpha 4108.
