Examples

  • καὶ ταῦτα πάντα γίνεται πλήρωμα τῆσ πρώτησ πόλεωσ, ὡσ τῶν ἀναγκαίων τε χάριν πᾶσαν πόλιν συνεστηκυῖαν, ἀλλ’ οὐ τοῦ καλοῦ μᾶλλον, ἴσον τε δεομένην σκυτέων τε καὶ γεωργῶν. (Aristotle, Politics, Book 4 59:1)
  • ὁ δὲ Κριτίασ, ἀλλὰ τῶνδέ τοί σε ἀπέχεσθαι, ἔφη, δεήσει, ὦ Σώκρατεσ, τῶν σκυτέων καὶ τῶν τεκτόνων καὶ τῶν χαλκέων· (Xenophon, Memorabilia, , chapter 2 44:1)
  • Δεῖ δὲ ἐσ τὸ κοῖλον τῆσ μασχάλησ ἐνθεῖναι στρογγύλον τι ἐναρμόσσον‧ ἐπιτηδειόταται δὲ αἱ πάνυ σμικραὶ σφαῖραι καὶ σκληραὶ, οἱαῖ ἐκ τῶν πολλῶν σκυτέων Ῥάπτονται‧ ἢν γὰρ μή τι τοιοῦτον ἐγκέηται, οὐ δύναται ἡ πτέρνη ἐξικνέεσθαι πρὸσ τὴν κεφαλὴν τοῦ βραχίονοσ‧ κατατεινομένησ γὰρ τῆσ χειρὸσ, κοιλαίνεται ἡ μασχάλη‧ οἱ γὰρ τένοντεσ οἱ ἔνθεν καὶ ἔνθεν τῆσ μασχάλησ, ἀντισφίγγοντεσ, ἐναντίοι εἰσίν.
