Headword: Σάμου ὑληέσσης
Adler number: sigma,81

Greek Original:
Σάμου ὑληέσσης: οὐδέποτε κατὰ τὴν συνήθειαν λέγομεν Σαμοθρᾴκην, ἀλλὰ διαλελυμένως: ὥσπερ ἐν πόλει ἄκρῃ, τῇ ἀκροπόλει.
Notes:
[1] (i.e. literally Thracian Samos. This also occurs in the Homeric Hymns (3.24); and in Homer, Iliad 24.78 & 753 Samothrake is called simply Samos.) cf. the scholia to Homer, Iliad 13.12, where (12-13) Σάμου ὑληέσσης ͅ Θρηικίης occurs (web address 1). For Samothrake, cf. sigma 79 (and under alpha 1164, alpha 1853, upsilon 126).
[2] cf. the scholia to Homer, Iliad 6.88, where this phrase occurs (web address 2).
