    Other forms: also κότθυβος (with dialectal τθ = σσ) a piece of military equipment; cf. also κοσσυβάτας which confirms the nasalless form (Fur. 283). Further Lat. gossypion, - inum (Plin. N.H. 19, 14, resp. 1, 12, 21 +; from *γοσσυπιον); = περίζωμα? ( Rev. Arch. 1935: 2, 31). Also κόσυμβος m., after H. (- σσ-) = κοσ(σ)ύμβη; also `hairnet' (LXX Is. 3, 18); from it κοσυμβωτός (Ex. 28, 35, χιτών; v. l. κόσυμβος), after H. = κροσσωτός, i.e. `with fringes'.
    Derivatives: from it κοσυμβωτός (Ex. 28, 35, χιτών; v. l. κόσυμβος), after H. = κροσσωτός, i.e. `with fringes'.
