Exegesis
The second clause is introduced by the participial construction epiripsantes autōn ta himatia {ἐπιρίψαντες αὐτῶν τὰ ἱμάτια | e-pi-ríp-san-tes au-tôn tà hi-má-ti-a}, where the aorist participle epiripsantes functions as an attendant circumstance or temporal participle, describing preparatory action that accompanies the main verb.
The genitive autōn {αὐτῶν | au-tôn} ‘their’ denotes possession of the direct object ta himatia {τὰ ἱμάτια | tà hi-má-ti-a} ‘the garments’.
In context — Luke 19:35
And they brought it to Jesus , and after throwing their garments on the colt, they seated Jesus on it.
