Notes:
[1] The primary headword r(iph=s (genitive singular of r(iph/, for which cf. rho 178) is identically or similarly glossed in other lexica and in scholia on Homer, Iliad 21.12 and 12.462, where it occurs (web addresses 1 & 2). NB: the SOL's headword is, mistakenly, the *secondary* one here.
[2] From a gloss on Herodotus 2.96.4, where the dative r(ipi/ occurs, referring to a raft made of reeds (web address 3); cf. generally rho 181.
[3] Greek Anthology 6.290.1 (Dioscorides), the hetaera Parmenis dedicates a lady's fan to Aphrodite; cf. Gow and Page (vol. I, 85) and (vol. II, 245).
