Astacodum scripsit Stephanus pro sticados.


Apparatus:

Astacodum (-duʒ A f; -dũ B) ABC f | Astacodon e


Translation:

Stephanus writes Astacodum for sticados.


Commentary:

This is a Latinized version of Arabic ﺍﺳﻄﻮﺧﻮﺩﺱ /usṭūḫūdus/, which is itself taken from Greek στοιχάς /stoikhás/, genitive στοιχάδος /stoikhádos/.

Simon's statement can only be scrutinized once a critical edition of Stephanus's work is available.
