Translation
[Meaning] a depository of [= for] bees.
Greek original · Adler’s text
Κύβεθρον· θήκην μελισσῶν.
Betacode
*ku/beqron: qh/khn melissw=n.
Notes
- The gloss is in the accusative case, so the (neuter) headword --
ku/beron in ms F -- must be too, and, as such, quoted from somewhere. See LSJ Suppl., where the word is taken to mean 'a container of some kind'.
