Search results for kappa,1416 in Adler number:
Greek display:    
Headword: *kero/essa
Adler number: kappa,1416
Translated headword: horned
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Meaning] plaited-together [feminine]. Also [sc. attested is] kero/eis: [meaning] plaited-together [masculine].
Greek Original:
*kero/essa: h( sumplektikh/. kai\ *kero/eis, o( sumplektiko/s.
Notes:
The adjective kero/eis can refer to (e.g.) the horned Moon, carriages drawn by oxen, and ornaments made of horn -- see generally LSJ s.v. -- but the repeated glossing here is suggestive, rather, of braided hair-styles (for which cf. kappa 1349).
Ps.-Herodian (Partitiones 206) prescribes the spelling kerw/eis, kerw/essa.
