Notes:
[1] Likewise in other lexica (references at
Photius pi1350 Theodoridis), and cf. the
scholia (2.24 Rabe) on Lucian,
Phalaris 1.3, where the accusative plural appears. The present headword, nominative singular, appears in the accusative singular at
Thucydides 4.110.2 (web address 1).
[2] Quotation not identified by Adler but identifiable via the TLG as an approximation of
Cassius Dio 51.23.4. See on this Theodoridis'
Photius edition, vol.II p.XC.
