Translation

In Herodotus meaning [something] long, straight.

Greek original · Adler’s text

Σχοινοτενές· παρὰ Ἡροδότῳ ἀντὶ τοῦ μακρόν, ὀρθόν.

Betacode
*sxoinotene/s: para\ *(hrodo/tw| a)nti\ tou= makro/n, o)rqo/n.  

Notes

  1. From glosses on Herodotus 1.189.3, where the accusative plural sxoinotene/as occurs in the context of Cyrus crossing a river (web address 1). But the glossator -- like the present entry -- actually gives the neuter singular sxoinotene/s, which comes from Herodotus 7.23.1.
