         DefinitionShort: a large container made of woven material, usually grass or reeds; used for carrying a variety of things, including food and produce, and for moving soil from one place to another{N:001}

         Glosses: large basket

         Comments: In the one context in which σαργάνη occurs ({S:04701103300010}), the basket was evidently rather large, since it was used to let Paul down from an opening in the wall of Damascus. It may very well have been made of braided ropes. In {S:04701103300010} the basket is called σαργάνη, while in {S:04400902500028} the same basket is referred to as {L:σπυρίς} ({D:6.149).
