Meaning
Meilinoe shows a τύπον of form through strange appearances at LXXI.7. The noun belongs to a cluster with ἰδέα and μορφή describing visible manifestation. It should be explained through that changing visual scene rather than assumed to designate a Platonic Form or a physical stamp used in a ritual.
