Greek display:    

Headword: *parqenw=nos
Adler number: pi,667
Translated headword: of a maiden's apartment
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Meaning] of the dance of the maidens.
Greek Original:
*parqenw=nos: tou= tw=n parqe/nwn xorou=.
Notes:
An inscrutable entry (also, according to Adler, in the Ambrosian Lexicon). The headword, in the genitive singular, must be quoted from somewhere; but perhaps 'dance' is a mistake.
There is no good reason to think that this has anything to do with *the* Parthenon, the temple of the virgin goddess Athena in Athens (epsilon 368); for the word in a domestic context see LSJ s.v.
Keywords: architecture; definition; dialects, grammar, and etymology; gender and sexuality; meter and music; religion; women
