herodotus

{anetheken elon}, {anetheken ion}, {anetheke theo}, {anethekeneont}, {anetheke neon}: the last, which is Bentley's, is perhapsthe best; but it is doubtful whether the active form of the verbis admissible.51. {autos}: the MSS. have {auton}. If {autos} is right, the meaningis "from his own property."52. The expression {Peisistratidai} is used loosely for the family ingeneral.53. {porinou lithou}, "tufa."53a. Or "of God."54. {Koniaion}. There is no such place as Conion known in Thessaly,but we cannot correct the text with any certainty.55. There is perhaps a play of words in {basileus} and {leuster}.56. {prutaneio}.57. "Rulers of the people."58. "Swine-ites."59. "Ass-ites."60. "Pig-ites."61. {proteron aposmenon, tote panta}: most of the MSS. read {panton}for {panta}. The Editors propose various corrections, e.g.{proteron apospenon panton, tote k.t.l.}, "which before wereexcluded from everything," or {proteron apospenon, tote pantonmetadidous}, "giving the people, which before he had despised, ashare of all rights": or {panton} is corrected to {epanion}, "onhis return from exile," temporary exile being supposed as theresult of the defeat mentioned in ch. 66.62. {tous enageas}.63. i.e. of Athene Polias in the Erechtheion.64. Cp. iv. 145.64a. {tous boethous}: most of the MSS. have {tous Boiotous}.
