Headword: *klhth=res
Adler number: kappa,1796
Translated headword: summons-witnesses
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
and to be a summons-witness. Summons-witnesses [are] the men through whom those involved in litigation with anybody are summoned to the cases; for it was necessary that certain people appear as witnesses of the summons.[1] To-be-a-summons-witness is to become a summons-witness[2], as Isaeus [shows].[3] And [the middle voice] klhteu/esqai and e)piklhteu/esqai are applied to witnesses, whenever people disregard the testimony in the jurycourt; and there is a fine of a thousand drachmas on them, as Isaeus [shows] in the [speech] For Python on a charge of having neglected his patron.[4]

Notes:
An abridged version of Harpokration s.v., where at one point the punctuation makes better sense than it does here ("...witnesses. Whenever people disregard the testimony in the jurycourt, there is..."). See also kappa 1792, kappa 1794, kappa 1795.
[1] For this Harpok. cites Isaeus fr. 108 Sauppe.
[2] That is, the verb klhteu/ein is cognate with the noun klhth/r.
[3] Isaeus fr. 88 Sauppe.
[4] Isaeus fr. 119 Sauppe.
