Headword: *ste/ggis
Adler number: sigma,1025
Translated headword: stengis
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[no gloss]
Greek Original:
*ste/ggis.
Note:
Comparable entry, according to Adler, in the Ambrosian Lexicon (731). More usefully, Erotian has an entry for the accusative singular steggi/da. There he cites the medical writer Heraclides of Tarentum (C1 BCE) for the spelling streggi/da but disagrees with him; and he objects also to H's definition of the word as a golden ribbon, asserting instead that the object here is in fact the one defined at sigma 1125.
