"οἰσύπη" meaning in Ancient Greek

See οἰσύπη in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /oi̯.sý.pɛː/, /yˈsy.pi/, /iˈsi.pi/, /oi̯.sý.pɛː/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /yˈsy.pe̝/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /yˈsy.pi/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /yˈsy.pi/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /iˈsi.pi/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: Explained as "ὀϝι-σύπη", like the synonym οἰσπώτη (oispṓtē), with an unclear second member. There is clear evidence for οἴσπη (oíspē, “sheep dung”), but it is difficult to decide whether the form with "υ" or the form without it is secondary. According to Beekes, the word is undoubtedly from Pre-Greek.
