Koniortos B e | Koniroros AC


Translation:

Koniortos is Greek for Latin pulvis {"powder, dust"}.


Commentary:

The form Koniroros appears in some of the collated prints; it is an obvious misreading of Koniortos. The correct transcription of the Greek word is found in B, the early Zarotus print, and ms. e.

κονιορτόϛ /koniortós/ "dust raised or stirred up, cloud of dust; dirt; sweepings" (LSJ).
