Notes:
Unknown citation, also at kappa 2151, where the synonym a)na/desmos is given. The noun e)gko/mbwma is similarly glossed in the Etymologicum Gudianum and Etymologicum Magnum.
The noun is otherwise attested only as "fringe" (or "molar") in Hesychius; but it is clearly related to kombi/on "buckle".
See also kappa 1988.
