|etymtx=-αντος<br />Grammatical information: m.<br />Meaning: [[corpse]], [[a dead]] (Pl. R. 387 c, H.), also of the Styx (S. Fr. 790) and metaphorically of wine-vinegar (Hippon.). <b class="b3">ἀλίβας· νεκρός ἦ βροῦχος ἦ ποταμός ἦ ὄξος</b> H.; other glosses s.

[[Libitina]]; possible, but uncertain. The deviant shape of the word and forms like [[ὀκρίβας]], [[κιλλίβας]], [[λυκάβας]], [[Κορύβαντες]] (not to [[βαίνω]] of course) make it clear that this is a substr. word.
