DefinitionShort: a light made by burning a wick saturated with oil contained in a relatively small vessel
Glosses: lamp
Comments: In some languages the closest equivalent of λαμπάς[b] and λύχνος is a kerosene lamp. What is to be avoided is a word which suggests a flashlight, which would of course be highly anachronistic.
