Vetting Status: high
Translation: From the nominative [sc. singular]
a(marta/s.[1]

Notes:
[1] The headword itself is accusative plural, presumably quoted from somewhere -- other than the quotation given, where it is nominative plural. Perhaps, as suggested by Latte on
Hesychius s.v.,
Herodotus (8.140.a1 & b4). See also
alpha 1497.
