Translation
A type of flat-cake, which now we call a kopte. But Symmachus1 [sc. says that it is] also the miniature wagon. Aristophanes in Clouds [writes]: "when I bought you a hamaxis at the Diasia."2
Greek original · Adler’s text
Ἁμαξίς· εἶδος πλακοῦντος, ἣν νῦν κοπτὴν φαμέν. Σύμμαχος δὲ καὶ τὸ μικρὸν ἁμάξιον. Ἀριστοφάνης Νεφέλαις· ὅτ' ἐπριάμην σοι Διασίοις ἁμαξίδα.
