ὤγανον
ὥσπερ γὰρ ζώου τῶν ὄψεων ἀφαιρεθεισῶν ἀχρειοῦται τὸ ὅλον, οὕτως ἐξ ἱστορίας ἀναιρεθείσης τῆς ἀληθείας τὸ καταλειπόμενον αὐτῆς ἀνωφελὲς γίνεται διήγημα → for just as a living creature which has lost its eyesight is wholly incapacitated, so if history is stripped of her truth all that is left is but an idle tale | for, just as closed eyes make the rest of an animal useless, what is left from a history blind to the truth is just a pointless tale
English (LSJ)

Meaning: κνημὶς ἁμάξης und περιώγανα· ἐπίσσωτρα. οἱ δὲ τὰς κνημίας αἵ περιπήγνυνται ταῖς ἁμάξαις H.
Etymology : Nach v. Blumenthal Hesychst. 7 (m. ausführl. Behandlung) als illyr.-hylleisch zu u̯eĝh- fahren (s. 2. ἔχω). Viel mehr zu ἄγω mit Dehnstufe wie in ἀγωγή (Frisk Indogerm. 17 f. = Kl. Schr. 47 f.).
