[1]
Greek Anthology 6.33.1-2; cf.
pi 2275.
[2] Quotation unidentifiable (and irrelevant to the present headword, since
σάγος is unrelated to it). The dedicatee is not the early Roman King Numa/Noma (
nu 456), whose name does not decline like this, but rather, it seems, a king of nomads (cf.
nu 452,
nu 452); one manuscript, indeed, has
Νομάδων , not
Νομάδι .
