ἁλυκός [page 24]
BGU I. 14 iv. 22 (iii/A.D.) τυρῶν ἁλυκῶν , ib. IV. 1069 verso i. 9 τιμὴ ζύτου εὐπρατικ [οῦ ] καὶ ἁλυκῆς : the last two words are interlinear, and their relation is not clear the writer is Illiterate enough to mean cheap and salted beer, no doubt a popular beverage then as now. But query? Mayser Gr. p. 102 shows that ἁλικός , really a distinct word, supplants the earlier ἁλυκός in Hellenistic.
