Sounds Like: meh-tho-REE-an ex-ay-TAY-sa-to
Translations: border, boundary, he sought out, he investigated
From the root: ΜΕΘΟΡΙΑ, ἘΞΗΤΕΩ
Part of Speech: Noun, Verb
Explanation: This appears to be a concatenation of two separate Koine Greek words: the noun 'ΜΕΘΟΡΙΑΝ' (methorian), meaning 'border' or 'boundary' in the accusative case, and the verb 'ἘΞΗΤΗΣΑΤΟ' (exētēsato), meaning 'he sought out' or 'he investigated' (from the verb 'ἘΞΗΤΕΩ'). It is highly probable that these words should be separated. If treated as a single compound, it would mean something like 'he sought out a border' or 'he investigated a boundary'.
