Synagoge pi773,
Photius pi1491 Theodoridis, and cf.
Hesychius pi4263. The primary headword is the accusative singular of the noun/adjective
ptw/c (which is given its own entry at
pi 3048); the secondary headword is the accusative plural of the same noun.
Some or all of this entry probably derives from commentary on
Homer,
Iliad 22.310, where the primary headword occurs, but there are other attestations for which
scholia and other commentary approximate its content, e.g.
scholia to
Aeschylus,
Eumenides 326;
Lexicon of the Poetry of Gregory of Nazianzus pi188 (in reference to PG 1282.6);
Lexicon of the Orations of Gregory of Nazianzus pi183 (on
Oration 43.12.2);
scholia to
Lycophron,
Alexandra 930. Adler also cites
Anecdota Graeca (Cramer) 2.482.34.
The cited accusative plural, too, is presumably extracted from somewhere; extant possibilities begin with
Theocritus,
Idylls 1.110.
