τροφαλ-ίς, ίδος, ἡ,
fresh cheese, [[ 5th c.BC: Eupolis Comicus 277, 4th c.BC: Antiphanes Comicus 49 (troch.)] Refs 5th c.BC+]; τροφαλίδα τυροῦ Σικελικὴν κατεδήδοκεν a piece of Sicilian cheese, [[ 5th-6th c.BC: Aristophanes Comicus “Vespae” 838, compare 4th c.BC: Hermias Historicus 2 ] Refs 5th c.BC+]; whence the joke, καλεῖ.. τὴν.. Τυρὼ τροφαλίδα [[ “Comica Adespota” 393; τ. ὀβολιαῖαι 4th c.BC: Aristoteles Philosophus “Historia Animalium” 522a31.] Refs 4th c.BC+]—The form τρυφαλίς is common in later writers, as [[ 2nd c.AD: Lucianus Sophista “Lex.” 13, Hdn.Gr. 2.18 ] Refs 2nd c.AD+] (rejected in favour of τροφαλίς [[ [prev. author] 1.91), 5th c.AD(?): Hesychius Legal icographus ] Refs 5th c.AD+]; τὰς δέκα στρυ᾽ φαλιδας (sic codex A, ν[[ superscr. A 1) τοῦ γάλακτος LXX.1Ki.17.18 ] LXX]; a form τροφαλλίς occurs in codices of [[ 12th c.AD: Eustathius Episcopus Thessalonicensis 1535.22 (in citation of “Comica Adespota” [same place]); 5th c.AD(?): Hesychius Legal icographus ] Refs 5th c.AD+] also cites τραφαλλίς, τραφαλλος. (From τρέφω [[ 1 _accusative_ to Hdn.Gr. 1.91, but the spelling τρυφ-, which he mentions, remains, unexplained: oxytone _accusative_ to Hdn.Gr. [same places], so that the accusative τρόφαλιν in 1st c.AD: Erotianus Grammaticus see at {τεθραμμένον} must be an error.) ] Refs 1st c.AD+]
