Headword:
Φαεινόν
Adler number: phi,20
Translated headword: brilliant, shining
Vetting Status: low
Translation: Bright.[1]
"And they with shining woven [sc. baskets] receiving the desserts, [i.e.] nuts and acorns."[2]
Greek Original:Φαεινόν: λαμπρόν. καὶ πλέγμασι φαεινοῖς ἐκδεχόμενοι τὰ τρωκτά, κάρυα καὶ βαλάνους.
Notes:
[1] cf. the
scholia to
Homer,
Iliad 3.357, where the feminine genitive singular of the headword occurs (of a shield). The present headword itself -- masculine accusative singular or neuter nominative/accusative singular -- is similarly glossed in other lexica and evidently quoted from somewhere else.
[2] (cf.
tau 1081.) Quotation unidentifiable. (Attributed to
Aelian by Valckenaer.)
