Translations: military expedition to Hyrcania, campaign to Hyrcania
From the root: ΣΤΡΑΤΕΙΑ, ΥΡΚΑΝΟΣ
Part of Speech: Noun, Adjective
Explanation: This word appears to be a compound of two words: 'στρατεία' (strateia), meaning 'military expedition' or 'campaign', and 'Ὑρκανός' (Hyrkanos), referring to the region of Hyrcania. Therefore, the combined meaning is 'a military expedition to Hyrcania' or 'a Hyrcanian campaign'. It describes a military action directed towards or occurring in the region of Hyrcania. The ending '-αν' on 'στρατείαν' indicates the accusative case, while 'Υρκανώ' is likely a dative form of 'Υρκανός' (Hyrcanian) or a proper noun referring to Hyrcania. Given the context of a military expedition, it most likely means 'to Hyrcania'.
Inflection: Compound word: 'ΣΤΡΑΤΕΙΑΝ' is Singular, Accusative, Feminine. 'ΥΡΚΑΝΩ' is likely Singular, Dative, Masculine or Neuter, referring to the region.
