Notes:
[1] RE Kastor(8); OCD4
Castor of
Rhodes; FGrH 250. The main paragraph of the present entry has already appeared, out of alphabetical order, as
kappa 402.
[2] The historian has been conflated with the Galatian ruler
Castor, on whom see
Strabo 12.5.3;
Cicero,
Pro Rege Deiotaro. (On Deiotarus himself see OCD4 s.v.)
