Demosthenes [in the speech] Against Timokrates [sc. uses the word].[1] The wood[en device] in the prison used to be called this; either with the other k interpolated, [i.e.] there being some harm [kakosis] of the feet[2]; or, as Didymus [sc. suggests], by abbreviation, as if [the full version were] foot-restraint.[3]

[1] Demosthenes 24.105 (web address 1).
[2] In fact, the double-kappa version of the word, podoka/kkh, seems to be the more authentic, so this etymology is suspect: see LSJ s.v.
[3] Didymus p.117 Schmidt; "foot-restraint" = podokatoxh/.
