[1] The headword, presumably extracted from the quotation given, is an intransitive aorist participle of
katadu/nw, masculine nominative singular; cf.
kappa 538,
kappa 540.
[2] Bernhardy attributed this quotation to
Eunapius; cf.
omicron 63 (not Adler's '163', which she later corrected). The name Gaianas is attested as that of a rival to
