The entry δραξών in the Etymologicum Genuinum, which mentions the name of Eratosthenes of Cyrene (fr. 37 Strecker), discusses the meaning of the Sicilian term δραξών and of another rare word, καψιπήδαλος. This article discusses the text of the entry and the meaning of these two glosses. The probable context of Eratosthenes’ discussion could be related to a Sicilian festival, the Cotytia, and to a comedy of Eupolis.
