Adler number: epsiloniota,203
Translated headword: woolly-fleeced
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Meaning] having fleeces of wool.[1] *po/koi ["fleeces"] are so-called from [the verb] pe/kein, which is to comb.[2]

*ei)ropo/kois: e)ri/wn po/kois e)/xousi. po/koi de\ ei)/rhntai para\ to\ pe/kein, o(/ e)sti cai/nein.
Notes:
cf. generally epsiloniota 197, epsiloniota 201, epsiloniota 204.
[1] Adler prints the dative po/kois, but some mss read the accusative po/kous, as the sense requires.
[2] cf. scholion on Homer, Iliad 5.137, where the dative-plural headword occurs (web address 1). Likewise or similarly in other lexica. For the verb pe/kein, cf. pi 918.
