A Lexicon of Proper Names (and adjectives)

The digital version from HOMER'S ODYSSEY (Munro-Allen 1920) and the lexica come from the Perseus Project, often from its development under Logeion. The lemmatization comes from the Perseus Treebank (Celano, Crane, Almas: 2015).

The definitions come from the digital versions of the following lexica, via the Perseus Project. (The order of the list is relevant: if a word appears in one lexicon, it is no longer searched for.)
