Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Used] to mean katastrophe ["overturning"].
Greek Original:
*)apostrofh/: a)nti\ tou= katastrofh/.
Notes:
A faulty version of the equivalent entry in Harpokration, which had commented on the appearance of apostrophe for kataPHYGE ["refuge"] in Demosthenes (4.8).
The two nouns are not in fact synonyms, for one has the image of turning away from, escaping (web address 1), the other of turning down or over, overturning, ending (web address 2 and kappa 804).
