Luc. 1, 74, 2. Ep. Ti. 4, 17, Hld. 10, 7)Compounds: Details in Schwyzer 681 w. n. 1, Chantraine Gramm. hom. 1, 294f., Bechtel Lex. s. v. As 1. member: ἐρυ- in Έρύ-λαος, Έρύ-μας, - μηλος (also Εὑρυ-, either after εὑρύς or from Ϝερυ- (?); s. below and cf. Specht KZ 59, 36f.); ἐρῠσι- in ἐρυσίπτολις `protecting the town' (Ζ 305 a. e.), ' Ερυσί-χθων (s. v.); Aeol. Εὑρυσί-λαος (cf. above). ῥῡσί- e. g. in ῥῡσί-πολις (A. Th. 129 [lyr.] a. o.).Derivatives: ἔρῠμα n. `defence' (Il.), diminut. ἐρυμάτιον (Luc.); from there ἐρυμν-ός `for defence, protected' (Ion.-Att.) with ἐρυμνότης `defence-force' (X., Arist.), ἐρυμνόω `defend' (Agath.). ἐρυσμός `defence, protection' (h. Cer. 230). ἐρῠ́σιμον ( εἰ- metr. length.) name of a kind of mustard (Thphr., Dsc.), because of its protection (Strömberg Pflanzennamen 81); from *ἔρῠ-σις or directly from verb, cf.

Gr. 200 [Kos], LXX). ῥῦμα `defence' (Hp., trag.).Origin: IE [Indo-European] [1161] *u̯eru-, *u̯ruH-? `avert, ward off, protect, defend'Etymology: For the assumption of an orig. *Ϝέρυ-μαι speak notably the Skt. nouns varū-tár- m. `protector', várū-tha- n. `defence, protection' (with vr̥ṇóti `avert', Germ., e. g. Goth. warjan ` wehren' etc.). Doubts arise from the absence of a trace of a digamma in Homer; attempts for a solution in Solmsen Unt. 245ff. So we have two ablaut-degrees, Ϝερυ- and Ϝρῡ-, the last certain in εἴρῡται \< *Ϝέ-Ϝρῡ-ται etc. (cf. above), but further with unclear distribution. Esp. the general Ionic present εἰρύομαι, perhaps also for Εὑρυσί-λαος, one is prepared to assume vowel-prothesis, ἐ-Ϝερυ-, ἐ-Ϝρυ-, which is forbidden by modern insights: an unsolved problem. S.

3 Έρυσίχθων
Έρυσίχθων, -ονοςGrammatical information: m.Meaning: 1. Thessalian, son of Myrmidon or Triopas, because of his destruction of a wood sacred to Demeter punished by the goddess with an unsatiable hunger (Hellanik. ap. Ath. 416b, Call. Cer. 33ff.); by Strat. Com. 1, 19 (Ath. 382d) used as a travesty as name of an animal, prob. a swine (an ox?), because of his voracity or his destructive disposition. 2. Athenian, son of Kekrops and Agraulos (Pl. Kriti. 111a).Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: For the formation cf. ἐρυσί-πτολις `town protecting' (Ζ 305 a. e.). A later time, that wanted to connect the name better with the deeds of its owner, changed it to, connecting ἐρύω `draw, pull', "earth-puller", a name, that does not fit well with the destruction of the wood; Έρυσίχθων is then described by Lykophr. 1396 as γατομῶν. - Schulze Q. 318 (s. also KZ 55, 112 n. 2) took ἐρυσίχθων as "grub the earth" and connected Lat. ruō `grub', OCS rъvǫ `pull out' etc. (Pok. 868); cf also ῥυτοῖσι λάεσσι [Od.], which belongs rather to ἐρύω `draw'; s. v.); this would not fit the place in Straton. - Cf. v. Wilamowitz Hellen. Dichtung 2, 40f. No doubt a Pre-Greek name that has nothing to do with χθών.Page in Frisk: 1,570-571Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > Έρυσίχθων
