Adler number: sigma,571
Translated headword: [of] tenting-places

Greek Original:*skhnhma/twn: tw=n oi)kh/sewn. xeime/rion nu/kta thrh/santes e)ch=lqon, e)n h(=| ou)d' a)/n tis tw=n barba/rwn tw=n h)qa/dwn a)/neu tino\s e)caisi/ou a)na/gkhs e)/cw tw=n skhnhma/twn e)ge/neto.
Notes:
[1] The headword is genitive plural of
skh/nhma (cf.
sigma 573,
sigma 574). It is presumably from the quotation given, where it is governed by the preposition
e)/cw.
[2] Quotation (transmitted, in Adler's view, via the
Excerpts made for Constantine Porphyrogenitus), unidentifiable; but see already at
eta 148, with the note there.
Keywords: definition; dialects, grammar, and etymology; historiography; history
