The headword is accusative singular of the noun dou=pos, used in epic for the sound a slain warrior makes in falling (and for other dull, heavy sounds). From the scholia on Homer, Iliad 4.455, where it occurs (web address 1).
[2] This striking gloss, also in ps.-Zonaras, comes from a scholion (Aristonicus) on Homer, Iliad 23.679, where the perfect participle dedoupo/tos occurs. See also Hesychius delta2264.
