The plural form of 'daulia,' a type of ancient Greek dance or lyric poem form (extremely rare or possibly obsolete).
From Greek 'daulias,' related to ancient Greek musical and dance traditions. The term appears in classical references but is extremely obscure in modern English usage.
This word is so rare it might exist only in historical dictionaries and classical texts—it's a reminder that English incorporated Greek and Latin technical terms, many of which have essentially died out except in academic contexts.
