[3] Thus far, the entry =
Photius,
Lexicon kappa1276 Theodoridis, except that
Photius reads
katakekamme/nh ('bent over') instead of the Suda's
katakekumme/nh ('stooped over'). That the reading in
Photius is not accidental is indicated by the use of the same gloss in
Photius' separate entry on the 'all-stooping olive'. Theodoridis (at kappa1276 and Prolegomena lxvi) suggests that the Suda's reading may have been influenced by the presence of the gloss
keku/mmenon in the previous entry,
kappa 2798. On the "all-stooping olive" (apparently a reference to Athena's olive tree on the Acropolis of
Athens) see
Pollux 9.17, alongside
Hesychius alpha7851, pi23;
Pollux 6.163.
