Aristonic. vs. 239 ἡ διπλῆ, ὅτι τὴν ἀσπίδα ξηρὰν λέγει βῶν διὰ τὸ ἐκ βοείων εἶναιδερμάτων· καὶ ὅτι προτάξας θηλυκὸν οὐδέτερον ἐπήνεγκεν, τό μοί ἐστι, πρὸς τὸ σημαινόμενον, ὡς »νεφέλη δέ μιν, τὸ μὲν οὔποτε (Odyss. 12, 74)«. τὸ δὲ ταλαύρινον παρῆκται, εὔτολμον· οὐ γὰρ ἡ ῥινὸς ἔγκειται, ὡς ᾠήθησάν τινες; Scholl. Didym. βῶν: οὕτως αἱ Ἀριστάρχου βῶν σὺν τῷ ν. ἡ Ἀριστοφάνους βοῦν. τινὲς δὲ ἔξω τοῦ ν βῶ, καὶ μήποτε πιθανῶς, ἀντὶ τοῦ βόα; dies Letzte ist Aristarchs Urtheil, nicht das des Didymus; Aristarch war also geneigt, die Form βῶ, contrahirt aus βόα, für die beste zu halten; Scholl. V αἱ Ἀριστάρχου βῶν, ἡ Ἀριστοφάνους βοῦν, ἡ Ἡρωδιανοῦ βῶ, ὡς Βορέαο »Βορέω ὑπ' ἰωγῇ (Odyss. 14, 533)«. ἐν τοῖς παλαιοῖς ἐγέγραπτο βον, ὅπερ οὐκ ἐνόησαν οἱ διορθωταί. Iliad. 12, 105, οἱ δ' ἐπεὶ ἀλλήλους ἄραρον τυκτῇσι βόεσσιν, mit den Schilden; Scholl. Aristonic. σημειοῦνταί τινες, ὅτι βόας τὰς ἀσπίδας εἴρηκεν; 12, 137 οἱ δ' ἰθὺς πρὸς τεῖχος ἐύδμητον, βόας αὔας ὑψόσ' ἀνασχόμενοι, ἔκιον, Scholl. Aristonic. ἡ διπλῆ, ὅτι οὕτως τὰς ἀσπίδας βόας αὔας; 16, 636 ἃς τῶν ὤρνυτο δοῦπος ἀπὸ χθονὸς εὐρυοδείης χαλκοῦ τε ῥινοῦ τε βοῶν τ' εὐποιητάων; Scholl. Aristonic. ἡ διπλῆ, ὅτι προειπὼν ῥινοῦ τε, ὡς ἕτερόν τι διάφορον συμπλέκει βοῶν τε· καὶ ἤτοι ἐξ ἐπαναλήψεως νοητέον λέγεσθαι τὸ αὐτό, ὡς »πυκνοὶ καὶ θαμέες (Odyss. 12, 92)« καὶ »πόλεμόν τε μάχην τε (Iliad. 16, 251)«· ἢ τὸν τέ σύνδεσμον περιττὸν νομιστέον. ἵν' ᾖ ῥινοῦ βοῶν, τουτέστι τῶν ἀσπίδων; Scholl. Didym. ἄμεινον εἶχε, φησὶν ὁ Ἀρίσταρχος, εἰ ἐγέγραπτο βοῶνεὐποιητάων, ἔξω τοῦ τέ συνδέσμου, ἵν' ᾖ ῥινὸς βοῶν; anderes Scholl. Didym. ἐν δέ τισιν εὕρομεν ῥινῶν τε βοῶν τε κατὰ τὸ πληθυντικόν. Vgl. Apollon. Lex. Homer. p. 52, 2. 26. 53, 25. – Bei Xen. An. 5, 4, 12 ist der Homerische Sprachgebrauch noch weiter fortgebildet, ἔχοντες γέῤῥα πάντες λευκῶν βοῶν δασέα; von Schuhzeug ist die Rede An. 4, 5, 14 καὶ γὰρ ἦσαν, ἐπειδὴ ἀπέλιπε τὰ ἀρχαῖα ὑποδήματα, καρβάτιναι αὐτοῖς πεποιημέναι ἐκ τῶν νεοδάρτων βοῶν; also βοῦς geradezu = Rindshaut. – 3) übertr., von einem dummen Menschen, Machon bei Ath.
