MS Parisinus graecus 3069 is an autograph miscellany by the well-known humanist and scholar Angelo Poliziano (1454-1494). Among other things, it preserves a grammatical commentary on the Odyssey I-II, written in preparation for a course to be held at Florence’s university, around 1489-90. The commentary is a compilation of several ancient, medieval and contemporary sources, among which is an interpolated version of the Byzantine Lexicon of Suidas. Of the more than 240 entries that Poliziano cites as originating from Suidas, several are not to be found in A. Adler’s edition of the Lexicon, while others do not corres pond exactly to Adler’s text. I am publishing here those entries according to Poliziano’s manuscript.
