Adler number: theta,211

Vetting Status: high
Translation:
[Meaning] those of[1] Theon.
Greek Original:
*qew/neioi: oi( tou= *qe/wnos.
Notes:
This plural, attested only here (other lexica and grammars have the singular, but without comment), is presumably extracted from somewhere. See further, n.1.
[1] There is no basis for identifying this Theon (a very common name), and thus no means, either, of grasping the sense of this genitive: perhaps 'descendants' of; perhaps 'followers' of.
