Mk 6:22a ... And having-entered the daughter of-her of-Herodias (herself), ...

Verse 22 has four phrases and 27 words. The 1st phrase has these 6 narrator words, ... Kai eiselthousēs tēs thugatos autou Hrōdiados [And having-entered the daughter of-her of-Herodias (herself), ...]

The 6 narrator words are bottom up. The unnamed young woman is Herod's step-daughter, not a professional dancing girl. Her real name was Salome. Herodias temporarily takes the place of Herod, even though she is in another room, to show his step-daughter is the real daughter of Herodias.
