Πασίωνος· ὄνομα τραπεζίτου.

Betacode
*pasi/wnos: o)/noma trapezi/tou. 

Notes

  1. Here in the genitive case, perhaps because of the influence of the immediately preceding entry, "Pasinos". In Harpokration (and Photius) s.v. it is nominative.
    C4 BCE. Pasion (OCD4 s.v.) was celebrated for having begun his life as a slave and ended it as one of the richest citizens of Athens.
