Adler number: alpha,4442
Translated headword: aulikouroi, court-attendants
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Meaning] guards.
Also [sc. attested are] au)likoi,[1] [meaning court] kithara-players.
Greek Original:
Aulikouroi: phulakes. kai Aulikous, kitharôidous.
Notes:
Both these definitions are attested only in lexicography and both presuppose an etymological connection with au)lh/, court. For the kithara see generally kappa 1590.
[1] Here in the accusative case, so evidently quoted from somewhere. For the word in another sense see already under alpha 4437.
