Résumé
This paper deals with the meaning of the word διακόρευσις in an inscription from Rhodes which contains purity regulations (Blinkenberg, Lindos II, n° 487). The analysis reconsiders first Franciszek Sokolowski’s interpretation in his Supplément (1962, n° 91). In his view, the term positively refers to the rape of a girl and not to her deflowering, even though it is a hapax in epigraphic documents, occurring in a list of purity regulations which are not clear. In order to grasp the meaning of the term, this study relies on the very context of the regulation in which it is used of the word itself, and on the mentions of the term in other documents, such as medical treatises or narratives.
