2 κηθίς
κηθίς, - ίδοςGrammatical information: f.Meaning: `dice-box, -beaker' (Poll. 7, 203; not quite certain);Dialectal forms: perh. Myc. kati \/kāthis\/? Neumann Glotta 39 (1961) 176 thinks it is Luwian.Derivatives: Diminutive formations: κήθιον, - ειον, - ίον (Hermipp. 27, Poll., H.), κηθάριον (Ar. V. 674), κηθίδιον (Poll.); also with metathesis of aspiration χείτιον beside κείθιον (Eust. 1259, 36) and with loss of aspiration κητίον (Alkiphr. 1, 39, 8 [Frisk notes ` κηπίον Bast.' which is unclear to me], Ath. 11, 477d cod. A).Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: Technical word without etymology. Fick and Solmsen KZ 33, 295f. compare κώθων `beaker' which seems improbable. - Cf. κάθος σπυρίς H., also κάθιδοι (for - ίδες?) ὑδρίαι H. (vgl. s. v.). Is κητίον reliable? if so it would be a Pre-Greek word. The change of aspiration is Ionic but the change η \/ ει is typical of Pre-Grek; (Fur. 352); a Pre-Greek word is anyhow probable.Page in Frisk: 1,837Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > κηθίς

4 γηθυλλίς
γηθυλλίς, - ίδοςGrammatical information: f.Meaning: name of an onion (Epich.); (cf. Strömberg Theophrastea 84).Other forms: γήθυον n. (Ar.), γήτειον n. (Ar.), κητίον (Cratin.), γαιθυλλάδαι Η. Fur. 187, 253 further adds γάθια ἀλλάντια H., ἀγασυλλίς (Dsc. 3, 84. ἀγαθίς = σησαμίς H.Dialectal forms: Dor. γᾱθυλλίςOrigin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: Kalén GHÅ 24 (1918): 1, 103ff. analyses γη-θυλλίς as `Erdsäckel'; also γήθυον as *θύον `sacculus'; a most remarkable etymology (discussed seriously by the etym. dictionaries!). It does not account for γήτειον. θ after γηθέω (DELG) is the wrong kind of `explaining away' facts. Evidently a Pre-Greek name (Fur. ll.cc.; note α\/αι, θ\/σ).Page in Frisk: 1,304Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > γηθυλλίς
