[Meaning a] dance.[1] Also [sc. attested is the related noun] 'tumblerage',[2] [meaning] dancing.
*kubisthth/r: o)rxhsmo/s. kai\ *kubisthti/a, h( o)/rxhsis.
The headword noun
kubisthth/r is nominative singular. The content of the entry probably comes from commentary to
Homer, where the word appears in other forms:
Odyssey 4.18,
Iliad 18.605 (nominative dual),
Iliad 16.750 (nominative plural); and/or from commentary on
Plato,
Symposium 190A, where two forms of the related verb
kubista/w ('I tumble',
kappa 2598) appear; cf.
scholia ad locc. and note 1 below. See also
alpha 3984,
omicron 670,
chi 398, where the headword appears as a gloss.
[1] The glossing term is apparently a mistake for
o)rxhsth/r ('dancer'); cf. generally
Hesychius kappa4378, ps.-
Zonaras 1262.26.
[2] This word is attested only here and, according to Adler, in the
Laurentian lexicon.
