*laistro/n: prutanei=on. 

Notes

  1. Also in Theognostus, On Orthography 27, and ps.-Zonaras s.v. laitro/n. Seemingly a corruption of Hesychius' la/iton (lambda163) -- glossed as a)rxei=on -- which in turn is an Atticisation of Herodotus 7.197.2 ('the Achaians call to\ prutanh/ion a lh/iton, "town hall").
