Meineke: 433.13 | Billerbeck: Μ73
OCR: gemini-constrained (gemini-3-flash-preview) on 2025-12-27
Word count: 10
Translation blocked: Mostly mechanical differences in punctuation and spelling (Μάρκαιον· → Μάρκαιον,; Τρωάδος → Τρῳάδος), but a substantive lexical substitution in the inhabitants' name (Μαρκαῖοι vs Μαρκαιίσσιοι).
Entities: Μάρκαιον (Markaeon (Markaion)) [place], Τρωάς (Troad) [place], Γέργις (Gergis) [place], Μαρκαῖος (Markaeans) [people]
Etymologies: Unclear Metalinguistic: “Markaeon: a mountain of the Troad near Gergithos. The inhabitants are called Markaians.” — The entry gives the place-name and its demonym but does not provide an etymological origin.
