    Paxamathi. It's bread, but what kind? How processed? I'm really
    looking for an equivalent
    English word. Probably archaic, but I think it described bread
    preserved in some way. Not maintaining freshness so much as inhibiting
    mould.

    First google search of paxamathi found this:
    scroll down for crete dakos

    http://diatrophi.com/saladsEN.htm

    I then googled crete dakos and got this:

    http://greekfood.about.com/od/veggieappetizersmezethes/r/dakos.htm

    So is it some kind of barley bread?
    Just a wild guess.

    Or it might just mean bread crumbs. Another quick google of "amathi"
    = sand.

    And you're damn good at it. Thanks. I suspect that paxamathi are bread
    crumbs made from slowly-baked (very dry bread). In English the dried
    bread is called rusk which comes from the Dutch. That's got to be the
    word I'm looking for.
