";tent"; : cf. P Cairo Zen I. 59013.14 (B.C. 259) σκηνὴ δερματίνη, PSI V. 533.2 (iii/B.C.) σκηνὴν κατάγαγε ἡμῖν τετράκλινον ἢ πεντάκλινον, and P Leid Wxiii. 21 (ii/iii A.D.) (= II. p. 125) μὴ ἐξέλθῃς δὲ ἐκ τῆς σκηνῆς σου. The employment of σκηνή for οἰκία, καταγωγή, is said to be Asiatic in origin : see Menander Fragm. p. 261, No. 1065.
The editors understand σκηνή as = ship’s ";cabin"; in P Hib I. 38.7 (B.C. 252–1) τῶν συρίων ὑπὲρ τὴν σκηνὴ [ν ] ο ̣ὐσῶν, ";the Syrian clothes being above the cabin,"; and so ib. 86.7 (B.C. 248) ἀποκαταστήσω ἐπὶ σκηνὴν τοῖς ἰδίοις ἀνηλώμασιν, ";I will restore it (sc. grain) at the cabin at my own expense.";
We may recall the words which are sometimes ascribed to Democritus, ὁ κόσμος σκηνή, ὁ βίος πάροδος · ἦλθες, εἶδες, ἀπῆλθες. See also Anth. Pal. x. 72.
