The women who bring drink-offerings to the dead. Minos or On Law [uses the word]. They also used to call doing harm "putting into an urn" [καταχυτρίσαι ], as Aristophanes [uses the word].[1] [That] ἐγχυτρίστριαι is what they call both the women who purify the unclean by pouring over them the blood of a sacrifice, and the women who sing dirges; also the midwives who expose infants in urns.[2]
