[Meaning one who was] pirated/robbed.[1] Also [sc. attested is the related term] lĂȘistikon ["piratical"], a brigade and a mob; but lĂȘistrikon [is] a possession.[2]
*lhi+sqei/s: lh|steuqei/s. kai\ *lh|stiko/n, ta/gma kai\ plh=qos, lh|striko\n de\ kth=ma. 
[1] The headword is aorist passive participle, masculine nominative singular, of the same verb as 
lambda 424. Same glossing in 
Photius lambda244 Theodoridis. The earliest known instance of an aorist passive participle is the 
feminine accusative singular 
lhi+sqei=san in Apollonius Rhodius, 
Argonautica 4.400; the masculine form which has generated the 
Photius/Suda entry is also to be seen in 
Hesychius lambda830 (
lhi+sqe/ntos glossed 
klape/ntos, a)faireqe/ntos).
[2] This distinction, made by Aelius 
Dionysius, 
*)attika\ o)no/mata s.v. 
lh|stiko/n, attempts to give an active sense to 
lh|stiko/n "plundering" (e.g. "of pirates") vs. 
lh|striko/n "plundered". This is not reflected in how 
lh|striko/s was actually used, however: see LSJ s.v. The instance being glossed is 
Thucydides 1.4; see the 
scholia there. Aelius 
Dionysius is cited more closely in 
Photius lambda251 Theodoridis; the distinction is also invoked in 
lambda 474.
