καὶ ἐπιδορατίς

στόρθη· τὸ ὀξὺ τοῦ δόρατος, καὶ ἐπιδορατίς, Hsch. (cf. sq.).

Grammatical information: m. f.

Meaning: `cusp, tine (of an antler), fang, cape etc.' (S., Com. Adesp., Lyc., AP a.o.).

Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin] (S)

Etymology: Like the synonym στόνυξ an isolated poetic word with formation like φάρυγξ, σπῆλυγξ, σπόρθυγγες (s. σπύραθοι) a.o. from στόρθη τὸ ὀξὑ τοῦ δόρατος, καὶ ἐπιδορατίς H., which differs from OWNo. stirðr `stiff, unbending', storð f. `grass, green stalk' (IE * sterdh- or stert-, resp. str̥dh-, str̥t-) only in ablaut. Beside it with IE -d- a.o. OWNo. stertr m. `bird's tail', OHG a. NHG Sterz. Further forms w. lit. in Bq and WP 2, 630, Pok. 1023f. -- Finally to στερεός etc. (s. v.). -- No doubt a Pre-Greek word. (The etym. proposed has nothing to recommend it.) (Not in Furnée.)
