Notes:
[1] Same or similar glosses in other lexica (references at
Photius pi105 Theodoridis), and in a scholion on
Homer,
Iliad 5.304 (where
pa/lle occurs); cf. generally
pi 115. The headword is evidently quoted from somewhere -- perhaps
Aristophanes,
Acharnians 965 (where Lamachus does this with his helmet).
[2] Quotation (transmitted, according to Adler, via the
Excerpta Constantini Porphyrogeniti) unidentifiable; again at
sigma 1486.
