A few years ago, I attempted to understand the word EVA kolkedy on page 75v, unique in the text, without many cognates.
I proposed the reading νανωδης – dwarfish, ill-proportioned.
Currently, I think there is no reason to read « ol » only as « a »; this combination should also be considered « oi. »
In this case, the word can be read noini89, and transcribe, for example, the Greek word νῆνιδος or νῆνιδες, genitive or plural of νῆνις, att. for νεᾶνις – girl, maiden; of a young married woman; as adj., youthful, new.
