Meanings
plural Patmiots
- An inhabitant of the Greek island of Patmos.
“One of the reasons I bought the house was that it had more cisterns than any other building in town. I dug another two for good measure.” As every Patmiot knows, the island's main problem is its shortage of water. On Patmos, cisterns represent real wealth.
