Hello! My current research investigates sleep paralysis and the names associated with this condition in the classical literature, such as εφιάλτης, βραχνάς, πνιγαλίων, μόρα, etc. I have found an additional name in the online version of Liddell-Scott, which I cannot trace to its original reference:
πνῑγᾰλίων: -ωνος, ὁ, ἐφιάλτης, κοινῶς «βραχνᾶς» ἐν Κυζίκῳ δὲ «πιργαλ~ιός», Λατ. incubus, ἀπὸ τοῦ πνίγειν, διότι ὁ πάσχων αἰσθάνεται ὡς νὰ πνίγηται ἐκ τῆς στενοχωρίας, Θεμίσων παρὰ Παύλ. Αἰγιν. 3. 15· πρβλ. ἐφιάλτης.
After having exhaustively searched the available literature, including the cited work by Themison, I have been unable to find any mention of "πιργαλιός". I have searched various editions of Liddell-Scott, also with no success.
Would you happen to know which edition of Liddell-Scott contains πιργαλιός, and which reference they could have used?
Thank you so much!
