Notes:
[1] Likewise or similarly (minus the grammatical point) in other lexica. The headword is aorist active infinitive of
qigga/nw (cf.
theta 383). It must be quoted from somewhere (not necessarily the second quotation that follows here; Latte on
Hesychius theta581 opts for
Euripides,
Alcestis 1117, and there are in truth numerous possibilities).

Greek Anthology 7.232.2 (Antipater or
Anyte), the epitaph of Philip's son Amyntor, who died in battle in
Lydia; cf. Gow and Page, vol. I (40), vol. II (102); another excerpt from this epigram at
iota 756; and, in n.2 thereto, notes on the problem of attribution.
