@Marco:
Thx. Although it's not too good that the circular object escaped us this time. I wonder why a capital letter in "Und" is used in the middle of the text.
If the first letter is capital "F", then the word is simply "Fuer" = English "for".
@Oocephalus:
Excellent! The cheek is the right place to write a spell if one's teeth ache. Do you have any idea why the "tintten" is "einer" and not simply "tintten"?

About decomposing anchiton further, I think that's the wrong track. Better to find an early greek language MS of those Alexander's deeds and look for "oladabas" there. The fact that anchiton is not separated from oladabas strongly suggests that this is an established expression.
