Greek display:    

Headword: *shko/s
Adler number: sigma,302
Translated headword: precinct, stump
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
The inner chamber of the shrine, a temple, a house, a tomb.
"Entering the precinct of the captives they ordered [someone] to announce [...]".[1] Meaning [entering] the house.
They also apply the word to olive-trees,[2] for Lysias says: "he farmed for two years and [had taken over] no olive-tree, whether private or sekos [stump]".[3] So perhaps they call private [trees] "olives" and public ones "moriai"; and it seems that "stump" and "moria" are their names for the same thing.[4]
