[Meaning one intended] for a furnace.

Greek original · Adler’s text

Κοδομήϊον· καμινευτικόν.

Betacode

*kodomh/i+on: kamineutiko/n.

Notes

Entry unparalleled in other lexica.
The headword, a neuter noun, is a variant of kodomei=on, attested in Pollux 6.64, 7.181, 10.114, and kodomi/a, ta/ Hesychius, and derived from kodomeu/w. The stem is routinely mentioned as Attic for "bake" (e.g. scholia on Homer, Odyssey 18.27), but is not found in any literary texts.
The glossing adjective is attested only here but evidently related to kappa 284.
