The corpus record

Ὅμηρος

omeros

Generated live from the audited corpus — every figure on this page is a database query, not prose from memory.

Where it lives

Densest 12 of 38 attested works shown, by occurrences per 10,000 attested tokens.

What it meant

This reads as a proper name — a river, a person, a place — held only because the corpus attests it. It stands outside the library's subject, the vocabulary of the soul, so no lexicon entry is recorded.
