Headword:
Ἀπαγωγάς
Adler number: alpha,2869
Translated headword: carryings off, arrests
Vetting Status: high
Translation: Captures, incapacitations.
Also [sc. attested is the singular] ἀπαγωγή ["proscription"], a written deposition given to the magistrate concerning the necessity to arrest a certain person.
"Then Licinius arrived on the pretext of a proscription".[1]
So[2] the ἀπαγωγή is a type of lawsuit; it is named from ἀπάγειν ["to carry off"]. Evil-doers used to be carried off to the Eleven.[3]
Greek Original:Ἀπαγωγάς: αἰχμαλωσίας, ἀδυνατίας. καὶ Ἀπαγωγή, μήνυσις ἔγγραφος διδομένη τῷ ἄρχοντι περὶ τοῦ δεῖν ἀπαχθῆναι τὸν δεῖνα. ἐνταῦθα ὁ Λικίννιος κατὰ πρόφασιν ἀπαγωγῆς ἀφικόμενος. τὸ οὖν ἀπαγωγὴ δίκης ἐστὶν εἶδος: ὠνόμασται δὲ ἀπὸ τοῦ ἀπάγειν. ἀπήγοντο δὲ οἱ κακοῦργοι πρὸς τοὺς ια#.
Notes:
The headword is accusative plural, evidently quoted from somewhere (perhaps
Demosthenes: 20.156 or 25.78).
[1] Philostorgius,
Historia ecclesiastica V.2a, p.67.25-6 Bidez-Winkelmann. For this episode cf.
alpha 4450.
[2] This apparently logical connection is a non sequitur, since the entry now shifts without warning to classical
Athens (echoing, from now on, Harpokration s.v. apage; cf. already
alpha 2861).
[3] For whom see
epsilon 1156.
