[1]
Demosthenes 4.24;
Aristophanes,
Plutus [
Wealth] 173.
[2] See under
alpha 3111 (there is no dedicated Konon entry); OCD4
Conon(1).
[3] See
iota 770,
iota 771,
iota 772; OCD4 Iphicrates.
[4] See
chi 1 (for what it is worth); OCD4 Chabrias.
[5] So the transmitted text; but "they" (= the Athenians) in the equivalent entry in Harpokration is clearly correct.
[6] 'Kallias in' Harpokration (again correctly: see R. Develin,
Athenian Officials 684-321 B.C.) (Cambridge 1989) p.213, under the year 39l/390).
