- satiety; sufficient food
Meaning
Athena is asked for κόρος together with health and favourable seasons at XXXII.17. The petition makes satisfied appetite or enough food the appropriate sense, not the excess or arrogance the noun can suggest in other contexts. This is also a different word from the boy or youth forms κόρε and κόροι.
