[Meaning] a prostitute.
Greek original · Adler’s text
Κατήλυσις· ἡ πόρνη.
Betacode
*kath/lusis: h( po/rnh.
Notes
- The transmitted gloss makes no obvious sense and surely needs emendation. Kuehn's change (noted by Adler) from
po/rnh toporei/a ('journey') is very plausible. Compare alpha 1203, phi 807, and esp. eta 274.
For this headword see also kappa 1050.
