Notes: {'Caller': 1, 'LanguageCode': 'en', 'LastEdited': '', 'LastEditedBy': '', 'References': [], 'Content': 'One may argue that the meaning of προσφάγιον in {S:04302100500018} is relish, and that it is only the specialized context which makes possible the reference to fish. On the other hand, one may also argue that, as in the case of ὀψάριον ({D:5.16}), the term προσφάγιον has undergone a specialization of meaning, so that it no longer refers to any type of relish eaten with bread, but has the more specific meaning of fish as food.'}
