General Notes This anecdote about Anacharsis is not attested elsewhere, though a number of sententiae are attributed to him by (e.g.) Diogenes Laertius (1.101-105), and collected by Müllach (Frag. Phil. Graec. vol.1, pp.232-234). The date is written below the main text after a gap of several lines, either by another hand or by the same scribe in a faster, more cursive script.
