page 395 note 1 It is obvious that it was much harder for a Greek than for a modern child to learn to add. The Greeks had no sign for zero, and they had 27 instead of 9 (10 including zero) symbols. The difficulty can easily be tested by experiment.
page 395 note 2 It is unnecessary to discuss Reiske's reference to a passage in Demosthenes' speech in reply to Callippus, where νφοτρας has its ordinary meaning (§ 19). He also gives a reference to Eusebius which I have failed to identify.
