Translation

[Meaning] flocks of goats.¹
Also [sc. attested is] ai)po/los, [meaning a] goatherd.
Also [sc. attested is the related verb] ai)polw= ["I herd goats"]; [used] with a dative.²

Greek original · Adler’s text

Αἰπόλια· αἰγονόμια. καὶ Αἰπόλος, αἰγονόμος. καὶ Αἰπολῶ· δοτικῇ.

Betacode

*ai)po/lia: ai)gono/mia. kai\ *ai)po/los, ai)gono/mos. kai\ *ai)polw=: dotikh=|.

Notes (2)

The nouns ai)po/lion (neuter, here nominative/accusative plural) and ai)po/los occur in Homer, Herodotus, and the Septuagint; rarely in Attic.
Mistakenly, the SOL headword here is ai)po/los rather than ai)po/lia.
1From the scholia to Homer, Iliad 2.474, where the headword occurs. Likewise in other lexica. ↩
2LSJ s.v. cites an instance in Lysias (fr.25 Thalheim, now 76 Carey OCT). Also used absolutely. ↩
