What it meant — LSJ

projecting end of rafter, support the cornice

projecting end of rafter, IG 2(2).463.51:—hence γεισηπόδισμα, ατος, τό, ib. 114: the spellings γεισίποδες (Poll. 1.81, AB 227), γεισιπόδ-ισμα and γεισιποδ-ίζω (support the cornice, Is. Fr. 113) are less correct.

Where it came from

No etymology authority pointer is recorded for this lemma yet — an honest gap, not an omission. The etymological dictionaries (Beekes, Chantraine, Frisk) are matched incrementally.
