DOLA'TUS. Hewn, cut, chopped, and formed into shape with the dolabra, as applied to objects in wood (Cic. Acad. ii. 31. Plin. H. N. xvi. 18.), and represented in the annexed engraving (Dolatus/1.1), from the Column of Trajan; and as the action employed in using that instrument is one of giving repeated blows, the word is also applied in the sense of beaten violently. Hor. Sat. i. 5. 22.
