[Meaning] having approached in a well-dispatched fashion.
*steila/menos: eu)stalw=s e)pelqw/n.
=
Synagoge sigma202,
Photius sigma518 Theodoridis. The headword is aorist middle participle, nominative singular masculine, of
ste/llw. (For other forms of the same verb see
sigma 1076 and
sigma 1078.) It is evidently extracted from a literary source, but the possibilities are numerous. The same glossing phrase is used to gloss a compound from the same verb
metasteila/menos in the
scholia to Lucian,
Phalaris 1.6, where it has the sense 'having sent for'. Both the headword and the gloss are capable of a wide range of interpretation. If the original context was military, for instance, the gloss could mean "having attacked with light-armed troops".
