Note 434 — BOOK THE THIRTEENTH.

Theodore Alois Buckley translation · Edition 4

Footnote 434: (return) The meaning of αὐλῶπις is rather uncertain. According to the Schol. and Hesychius, it means a helmet that has the openings for the eyes oblong (παραμήκεις ἔχουσα τὰς τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν ὀπάς), or a helmet with a long crest (έκτεταμένον λόφον).
