Headword: *faistiw=nos
Adler number: phi,181
Translated headword: Phaistionos
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
A city.
Greek Original:
*faistiw=nos: po/lis.
Note:
The headword, not otherwise attested, is presumably in the genitive case, and if so it has probably been mistakenly generated from *faisti/wn, the genitive plural of Phaistians -- citizens of the Cretan city Phaistos (phi 182) -- in (e.g.) Polybius 4.55.6.
Keywords: definition; dialects, grammar, and etymology; geography; historiography
