Search results for phi,29 in Adler number:
Greek display:    
Headword: *fa/la
Adler number: phi,29
Translated headword: phala
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
An ornament of the helmet.
Greek Original:
*fa/la: ko/smos th=s perikefalai/as.
Notes:
The headword, variously accentuated fa/la (as here) and fala/, is unattested outside lexicography; Theodoridis on Photius phi28 obelizes it.
Most lexica have this glossing phrase (with the Etymologicum Magnum deriving the headword from fa/w 'shine'), except Hesychius: h( mikra\ ka/ra 'a small head'.
Keywords: clothing; definition; dialects, grammar, and etymology; military affairs
