Headword: *(wrokomei=on
Adler number: omega,200
Translated headword: horokomeion, horonomeion
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[no gloss]
Greek Original:
*(wrokomei=on.
Note:
The transmitted headword horokomeion (i) is otherwise unattested, (ii) is out of alphabetical order, and (iii) has no obvious meaning. So -- as the Dutch scholar Lambert Bos (1670-1717) suggested -- it is best regarded as a corruption of horonomeion, an alternative name for a sundial (omega 199).
Keywords: chronology; dialects, grammar, and etymology; science and technology
