Hêbos: ho kurtos. Hippokratês ho Kôios phêsin.
[1] The transmitted headword
ἡβός is otherwise unattested, but it is in fact an error for
ὑβός : see
upsilon 10. In the Hippocratic corpus -- see under next note -- this word occurs at Aphorisms 6.46. See also
Theocritus, Idylls 5.43, and LSJ s.v. on both headword and (at web address 1) gloss.
[2] The mss preserve this name as either (abbreviated) Hippost, corrected to Hippokr, or else Hippolytos, and the ethnikon supports Kuster's 'Hippokrates' (
iota 564,
iota 565,
iota 566,
iota 567,
iota 568,
iota 569).
