[1] Likewise or similarly in other lexica -- but
kai\ qou/rios, here, intrudes ungrammatically into what is otherwise an accusative singular (taken to be quoted from
Homer) and its glosses.
[2] An approximation of
Greek Anthology 6.126.2 (Dioskorides/
Dioscorides), from the shield of the Cretan warrior Hyllus; cf. Gow and Page (vol. I, 85), (vol. II, 245-246), and another excerpt from this epigram at
delta 379. Gow and Page note (vol. I, 85) that following the
Anthologia Palatina the Suda transmits
a)/llos ("another"), but they adopt a suggestion of C.G. Heyne (German classicist, 1729-1812) that the Cretan's rather common name
*(/ullos should be read instead (vol. II, 245).
