Notes:
[1] Likewise or similarly in other lexica; references at Photius pi617 Theodoridis. The headword is perfect middle/passive participle, masculine accusative singular or neuter nominative/accusative singular, of puka/zw. For these glosses cf. the scholia to Homer, Iliad 2.777, where the neuter plural occurs. The lexicographers' pepukasme/non might be quoted from Theocritus, Idylls 21.53.
[2] Part of Menander Protector fr. 10.3 Blockley (120-121), with a compound version of the headword verb. The extract describes the lavish accommodations provided by the Turks to Zemarchus (cf. alpha 2962 note) and his entourage during the embassy of 569-571. Further excerpts from this fragment are at alpha 2962, alpha 3615, epsilon 963, epsilon 2425, epsilon 3658, eta 416, theta 226, kappa 2021, lambda 57, pi 772, pi 1273, upsilon 178, upsilon 408, phi 617, and chi 340.
