*dibhth/sia: dibi/kia.
Notes
- According to the lexicon of E.A. Sophocles, the headword is the plural of
dibhth/sion , also written asdibiti/sion or evendiaith/sion , a non-Greek (perhaps Persian) word apparently designating a kind of garment. It appears in several Byzantine writers, notably Constantine VII Porphyrogenitus.
The glossdibi/kia is attested only here and (as an unglossed headword) in ps.-Zonaras.
