οὐλοχύτας, sacrificial barley, ‘barley for strewing’ (χέω, ‘pour’); cf. Od. 3.441, which has to do with the description of a sacrifice: ἑτέρῃ δ' ἔχεν οὐλὰς | ἐν κανέῳ, ‘and in his other hand he [Aretus] had barleycorns in a basket.’ This barley was sprinkled on the consecrated victims before they were sacrificed. |
