Betacode

*ai)aki/c: ei)=dos ku/likos.

Likewise in ps.-Zonaras and, according to Adler, the Ambrosian Lexicon.
Athenaeus, Deipnosophists 11.782F (11.22 Kaibel) cites the hellenistic antiquarian writer Timachidas of Rhodes (tau 599) for what is probably an alternative form of the same word: ai)aki/s; cf. Hesychius alpha1661. The word is otherwise unattested.
