Headword:
*para/buston
Adler number: pi,302
Translated headword: parabyston
Vetting Status: high
Translation: This was the name of one of the lawcourts in
Athens, where the Eleven tried cases. A particular couch in bridal apartments used to be called a
parabystos;
Hyperides mentions one in the [speech]
Against Patrokles.[1] [So the lawcourt] seems to be described metaphorically, from the stuffings,
parabysmata - that is fillings - in cargoes.
