Part of Speech: Noun
Explanation: This word, 'ΑΝΑΘ'', is likely an elided form of either ἀνάθεμα (anathema) or ἀνάθημα (anathēma). The apostrophe indicates that the final vowel has been dropped, typically before a word starting with a vowel. If it's ἀνάθεμα, it refers to something devoted to God, often for destruction, hence a curse or an accursed thing. If it's ἀνάθημα, it refers to something dedicated or offered to God, like a votive offering or a gift. The context of the surrounding words would determine which meaning is intended.
