^{page 6 note 2} See the pictures from Beni Hassan cited above. A similar method still in use among the peasants around Hermannstadt (Siebenbürgen) is described by Kimakowicz, pp. 61–63.

^{page 6 note 3} Apart from Homer, Blümner cites nothing earlier than the Anth. Pal., save Eurip. Orestes, 1431, which he cites again (p. 227) as illustrating the use of ελίσσειν for the turning of the spindle. It runs: . If his meanings for ελίσσειν and ἠλακάτᾳ are correct, it is difficult to see what kind of dative the latter can be. If, however, ἠλακάτη here also means spindle, the sense is simple, and we have another instance of the double instrumental dative, parallel to Sophocles, Ajax, 229: , where χερὶ corresponds to δακτύλοις and ξίφεσι to ἠλακάτᾳ.
