Headword:
*)epi/stion
Adler number: epsilon,2629
Translated headword: ship-shed, ship-slip
Vetting Status: high
Translation: [Meaning a] military lodging.[1]
Herodotus [writes]: "[Kleomenes] expelled the Athenians' households".[2]
*)epi/stion: stratiwtiko\n kata/luma. *(hro/dotos: o( de\ a)ghlate/ei ta\ e)pi/stia *)aqhnai/wn.
Notes:
[1] The neuter headword occurs in
Homer and elsewhere: see LSJ s.v. This definition of it comes from glosses on
Herodotus -- see next note -- and there is something similar in
Hesychius (epsilon5253).
[2] An abridgment of
Herodotus 5.72.1, where however
epistia has nothing to with the present headword; cf.
epsilon 2630.
