page 235 note † Cf. Texier, Byzantine Architecture, pl. 33. The primary meaning of the Greek word κιὡριoν is the cup-like seed-vessel of the Egyptian water-lily. The name and thing were therefore probably in secular use in Egypt long before theChristian era. It is curious that our word canopy is derived from κωνωφɛῖoν the canopied bed with curtains used in Egypt to keep off κὡνωφɛς, mosquitoes.A common synonym at this day in the East for κιὡριoν in the ecclesiastical sense is κoνβόυκλιoν a canopy apparently akin to the Latin cubiculum.
