Greek original · Adler’s text

Λογεῖον· τὸ μαντεῖον. ὅπερ ἐφόρει ὁ ἱερεύς, ἐν ᾧ ἦσαν ἐγκεκολαμμένοι οἱ ιβʹ λίθοι. καὶ Λογεῖον, τὸ δικαστήριον.

Notes (2)

  1. 1Likewise in ps.-Herodian and, according to Adler, the Ambrosian Lexicon. LSJ s.v. logeion registers no such definition, but see there under logion. ↩
  2. 2Material not paralleled in other lexica; 'the 12 stones', however, are attested as pertaining to the 12 tribes of Israel. ↩
