nœgēum — Lewis & Short

nœgēum (trisyl.), ii, n.,

I a garment trimmed with purple; acc. to others, a white upper garment: noegeum quidam amiculi genus praetextum purpura; quidam candidum ac perlucidum, quasi a navo (nauco), quod putamen quorundam pomorum est tenuissimum non sine candore, ut Livius ait in Odyssia: simul ac lacrimas de ore noegeo detersit, id. est candido, Paul. ex Fest. p. 174 Müll.: noegeum nigrum pallium tenue, Placid. p. 486.
