|txtha=σαρδίου, τό (neuter of [[σάρδιος]], [[see]] [[below]]), sard, sardius, a [[precious]] [[stone]], of [[which]] [[there]] are [[two]] kinds, [[concerning]] [[which]] Theophrastus, de lapid. 16,5, § 30, Schneid. edition says, [[τοῦ]] [[γάρ]] σαρδίου τό [[μέν]] διαφανες ἐρυθροτερον δέ καλεῖται θῆλυ, τό δέ διαφανες [[μέν]] μελαντερον δέ καί i [[ἄρσεν]], the [[former]] of [[which]] is called carnelian ([[because]] [[flesh]]-colored; [[Hebrew]] אֹדֶם, the Sept. [[σάρδιον]], ἁιματοεντα σαρδια, the Orphica, de lapid. 16,5), the [[latter]] sard: σαρδίνῳ); G L T Tr WH. Hence, the adjective [[σάρδιος]], σαρδια, [[σάρδιον]] (from [[Σάρδεις]], cf. Pliny, h. n. 37,7) sardine [[namely]], [[λίθος]] (the [[full]] [[phrase]] occurs (B. D., [[see]] [[under]] the words, Sardine, Sardius.)
