         DefinitionShort: a person who lives close beside others and who thus by implication is a part of a so-called in-group, that is, the group with which an individual identifies both ethnically and culturally

         Comments: It may be that of the three terms γείτων, {L:περίοικος}[b], the last is somewhat broader in meaning. At least πλησίον is used in {S:04201002700070} in a somewhat extended sense of ‘fellow man,’ while ἀδελφός[e] probably suggests a more intimate or close relationship.
