Word EVA oklairdy
A nymph on page 72r2 has a label «oklairdy».
I propose reading this word as «onlair89» or «oniair89».
There is no exact equivalent in Greek; however, transcribing it as ανιαιστος, we can find the words ἀνίαστος = ἀνίητος = ἀνίᾱτος – incurable, also in a moral sense; of persons, incurable, incorrigible.
Another way to read it could be ανιαιτρος for ἀνίητρος = ἀνίᾱτρος – no-physician; Adj., unworthy of a physician. Or perhaps it comes from the verb ἀνιᾱτρεύω – heal again?
Before I rack my brains trying to choose between «incurable» and «healed», I wonder what the labels on nymphs, in general, are supposed to describe?
