Notes:
[1] The headword is third person singular, aorist indicative middle, of
tima/w (cf.
epsilon 3317,
epsilon 3319,
epsilon 3320). It is probably extracted from the quotation given here, though there are earlier instances in Attic lawcourt oratory.
[2] Quotation (partly reproduced in the parallel entry in ps.-
Zonaras) unidentifiable. The
li/tra (
lambda 623) was a Sicilian silver coin, and also a measure of weight; see LSJ s.v. (web address 1).
