Question about Cuêzi transcription

Post by Chengjiang »

I notice that the name Iáinos, along with I think a couple of other words, has an acute accent on it. You define the macron and circumflex as denoting the high and falling/low tones, respectively, yet I can't seem to find any mention of the value of the acute. What does it mean?
