Thayer's Expanded Definition

στιβάς, στιβαδος, (from στείβω 'to tread on,' 2 aorist ἐστιβον);

a. a spread or layer of leaves, reeds, rushes, soft leafy twigs, straw, etc., serving for a bed (Hesychius στιβάς. ἀπό ῤάβδων χλωρῶν χορτων στρωσις καί φυλλων); so in Greek writings from Herodotus down.

b. that which is used in making a bed of this sort, a branch full of leaves, soft faliage: so Mark 11:8 L T Tr WH for στοιβάδας, an orthographical error (see Tdf.'s note at the passage).
