A particular [kind of] bird.
*kindayo/s: o)/rnis tis.
The identity of this bird is obscure; cf.
Hesychius kappa2729 (s.v.
kindayoi/) who defines the word (in the plural) as "birds and kithara-like instruments and (?)Indians". The musical instrument also occurs as
skindayo/s in
Hesychius (e.g., s.v.
bli/turi) as well as in the Suda: cf.
sigma 609,
beta 335.
