i - lus´tri - us ( θαυμαστός , thaumastós ): A title of rank and merit attached to the name of Bartacus, the father of Apame (1 Esdras 4:29, the King James Version "the admirable). Instead of "the illustrious" we should possibly read "colonel" ( Ant. , XI, iii, 5; EB , under the word). See BARTACUS; APAME .
