Γαῦλος: ὁ ἐξ ἀλλοτρίων ζῶν ἢ ὁ εὐαπάτητος. ἢ πλοῖόν τι φορτηγὸν Φοινικικὸν, ἢ ἄκατος. Γαυλὸς δὲ ὀξυτόνως, τὸ ποιμενικὸν ἀγγεῖον, ὃ δέχεται τὸ γάλα. Ἡρόδοτος: γαύλους τε ἐνταῦθα καταδύσας. ἢ Γαυλός, ὁ τοῦ φρέατος ἀντλητήρ. ἢ οἰνηρὸν ἀγγεῖον, ἐκ ξύλων κατεσκευασμένον, ἣν Ἰταλοὶ μαγγάναν ὀνομάζουσιν. ἐπὶ δὲ τῶν γαλακτοδόχων ἀγγείων: γαυλούς τε γλαγοπῆγας. ἐν Ἐπιγράμμασι.
Notes:
On
γαῦλος (the headword) and
γαυλός (which most of the entry turns out to concern) see generally LSJ s.v.
γαυλός . (The difference in accentuation is less clearcut on the ground than is claimed here.) The entry draws on, inter alia,
scholia to
Homer,
Odyssey 9.223, and to
Aristophanes,
Birds 598, and glosses on
Herodotus 3.136.1 and 6.119.3.
