Notes:
For Kepheus see kappa 1559. The present headword phrase is used as a periphrasis for 'Ethiopia' (alphaiota 126, alphaiota 127) by Nicander, Alexipharmaka 100 (accusative case); cf. the scholia there.
Similarly (adjective only), according to Adler, in the Ambrosian Lexicon; and more fully than the Suda in ps.-Zonaras and in Etymologicum Magnum 512.14-15.
