[1] Likewise in the
Synagoge,
Photius'
Lexicon (pi1106 Theodoridis), and elsewhere; similarly already in
Hesychius pi3052. See also
pi 1016.
*fi/bla is a transliteration of Latin
fibula.
[2] Quotation (transmitted, in Adler's view, via the
Excerpta Constantini Porphyrogeniti) unidentifiable.

Synagoge,
Photius (pi1107 Theodoridis), etc. The form glossed here, present middle infinitive of
