Headword: *)/idmona
Adler number: iota,124
Translated headword: having knowledge

Translation:
[Meaning] experienced.[1]

Notes:
[1] The headword is masculine/feminine accusative singular of i)/dmwn. It must be quoted from somewhere, perhaps Apollonius Rhodius, Argonautica 2.816 (web address 1), where it occurs as a proper name.
[2] Likewise accusative (from the quotation which follows); already at epsilon 2317.
[3] Greek Anthology 6.175.1 (Macedonius the Consul), the dedication of a very realistic dog statue. See Madden (189-191) and another excerpt from this epigram at kappa 1839.
