61 [ See ch. 50.]
62 [ {neotera epresse pregmata}.]

82 [ {pentaethlon epaskesas}.]
83 [ {mounomakhien epaskeon}, "practising single combat," as if training for the games.]
84 [ {para te Ikarion}: the use of {para} and the absence of the article may justify the conjecture {para te Ikarion} (or {Ikaron}) "by Icaria"
(or "Icaros"), the island from which the Icarian Sea had its name.]
85 [ This perhaps should be emended, for the event referred to occurred two years before, cp. ch. 46 and 48: The reading {trito proteron etei} has been proposed.]
