Notes:
From a gloss on
Herodotus 3.156.3 (where the headword appears, in a phrase quoted at the end of
kappa 730), also in
Etymologicum Magnum 689.1, partly from Orion [
Author,
Myth] 133.24; cf. a scholion on
Homer,
Odyssey 17.352.
Besides
kappa 730, cf. also (for this verb)
kappa 732.
[1] The infinitive
i(/cesqai is future of
i(kne/omai "I arrive". According to LSJ s.v., the most likely etymology of
kataproi/comai is from
kata - pro - i(kne/omai, not from
proi/c,
proi=ka (as suggested at
kappa 730).
[2]
Archilochus fr. 200 West (which should read, before the verb,
e)me/o de\ kei=nos "... will not come off well from me").
[3] Herodian the grammarian I p. XXXII Lentz. The alleged verb
i)/ssw probably comes from a mis-division of
proi/ssomai.
[4]
Archilochus fr. 296 West. This verb
proi/ssomai is apparently derived from the noun
proi/c (
pi 2983).
