Apparatus Criticus: | 1–2. Presumably for *κοντροκυνήγιος, a wild-beast hunter with a pike. LSJ lists κοντροκυνηγέσιον, citing IGRR 4.1632 and SEG 6.608, where L. Robert refers to his discussion of IGRR 3.360 in Rev.Arch. 30 (1929) 29–31 = Opera Minora Selecta 1.696–698. There he comments on the use of σιδηροκόντρα. There are no literary occurrences recorded in TLG. Cf. the fragmentary T12.6 for another possible occurrence at Smyrna. |
