The incised inscription on a fifth century BC strigil from Aiani, in Elimeia, Macedonia, is revisited. The first editor read ??????, the owner’s name, so far unattested and of unknown etymology and formation. A new reading is suggested here, ?????? (nominative), known also as a Thessalian personal name of the Archaic period. The etymology, the formation and the semantics of this personal name offer new evidence for the lexicon of ancient Macedonian.
