[1] Triphales was the main character's name in the homonymous play (cf.
tau 871,
tau 1135).
[2] This comedy, staged in 410 or 409 BCE, was almost certainly an attack on Alcibiades (
alpha 1280), probably in reference to his participation in the mutilation of the Hermai (
epsilon 3047, and cf.
phi 50).
