Explanation: This appears to be a compound phrase or a word formed by concatenating two words without a space, which was common in ancient Greek manuscripts. It combines the adjective 'λεῖος' (leios), meaning 'smooth' or 'level', with the noun 'ἐκδοχεῖον' (ekdocheion), meaning 'receptacle', 'reservoir', or 'cistern'. Therefore, it describes receptacles or cisterns that are smooth or level.
