ABSTRACT

The bulk of this chapter comprises 2.3 where the female names, with their actual spellings, are arranged alphabetically under head-words in normalised spelling. Preceding this, in 2.1, is a list of the sources from which the names have been gleaned, along with some discussion of these sources and their reliability. Section 2.2 gives details of the editions used and consulted. In this section, the format of the citations is explained and also the order in which the names are presented under each head-word.
