Canephroi

/kænˈɛfroʊi/ noun

An alternative plural form of canephor, the Greek classical plural used in scholarly and art historical contexts.

From Greek 'kanephoros,' using the Greek nominative plural '-oi' rather than the Anglicized '-s' plural. Scholarly and academic writing sometimes preserves original Greek plural forms to maintain classical precision and authenticity.
