DEAR MEMBERS
I WOULD BE MUCH OBLIGED IF ANY OF YOU
COULD HAVE SOME ALTERNATIVE ETYMOLOGICAL
EXPLANATIONS ABOUT KAIADAS, (GR. ÊÁÉÁÄÁÓ),
THE PLACE OF EXECUTION OF THE ENEMIES OF
LAKEDAIMONIAN STATE (OFTEN CONFUSED IN
MOST HISTORICAL APPROACHES WITH "APOTHETAI"
-GR. ÁÐÏÈÅÔÁÉ- WITH THE PLACE OR SITE FOR
ABANDONING THE DISABLED OR NOT "PROPER" CHILDREN).

SINCERELY YOURS
