Translation
A military unit [consisting] of 25 men1 amongst [the] Spartans.2 Its name derives from the [fact that] they swore [o)mnu/nai ] not to desert the unit.3
But others [define] an enomotia as the half of the lochos;4 the same thing is also [called] a dekania; and others assert that an enomotia is the quarter of the lochos.5 Also [sc. attested is the term] enomotarch, its leader.6
