Headword:
*na=ma
Adler number: nu,23
Translated headword: flow
Vetting Status: high
Translation: [Meaning] drinking water.[1]
"A place irrigated by flowing waters".[2]
Greek Original:*na=ma: u(/dwr poto/n. to/pos kata/rrutos namatiai/ois u(/dasi.
Notes:
On the (mainly poetic) headword see generally LSJ s.v.; and see also
upsilon 40.
[1] The glossing phrase is translated here as Adler punctuates it, but note that in
Photius nu14 there is a comma between the two words.
[2] Evidently a quotation; perhaps an approximation of
Timaeus FGrH 566 F164 (in
Diodorus Siculus 5.19.3) on
Sicily,
kata/rrutos ... namatiai/ois kai\ gluke/sin u(/dasi.
