Headword: *kolia/s
Adler number: kappa,1939
Translated headword: Kolias
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
A coastal promontory of Attica; named from a metaphor of the kolon. And there is a shrine of Aphrodite Kolias there.
Greek Original:
*kolia/s: e)piqalassi/a a)/kra th=s *)attikh=s: e)k metafora=s tou= ko/lou w)nomasme/nh. kai\ e)/stin au)to/qi *)afrodi/ths i(ero\n *kwlia/dos.
Notes:
See also kappa 2239 and kappa 2240, both with the more authentic *kw- spelling which spoils the etymology proffered here.
The present entry in fact follows (and abridges) Harpokration s.v. *kwlia/s (generated by the appearance of the name in [Demosthenes] 59.33-34), but it turns two of the relevant three omegas into omicrons.
Keywords: definition; dialects, grammar, and etymology; geography; imagery; religion; rhetoric
