*pro/soikos: oi)keio/teron ma=llon to\ o(/moros: e)pi\ ga\r o(/rwn tou=to lamba/netai.
From a scholion on
Thucydides 1.7.1, where the accusative plural
prosoi/kous occurs (web address 1). The headword here is nominative singular masculine or feminine. Literally it means 'housed adjacent', which the scholiast seems to think implies too small a scale for discussing neighboring cities. For the scholiast's preferred option 'coterminous' see
omicron 280. Interestingly
Hesychius pi3845 glosses the headword with
oi)kei=os ('familiar', 'related'), a form of the adjective that the current commentator uses to critique
Thucydides' word choice (translated here as 'more suitable').
