[264] ὠτώεντα, with handles, see 18.378. The correct form is doubtless “οὐατόεντα”, as Heyne conjectured. This adj. is quoted from Kallimachos, and is found also in Simonides, fr. 245.In δυωκαιεικοσίμετρον the “μέτρον” is evidently a definite fluid measure, cf. 268 fr., 741.Hultsch identifies it with the Phoenician standard, the saton.
