Grammatical information: adj.Meaning: `lascivious, debauched' (Archil. 183 as PN, Lyc. 771, H.), as adjunct of the pack-mule (Lyc. 816), also name of the ass itself? ( PTeb. 409, 7, Ip; written μοικ-, reading at all uncertain). After H. μύκλοι or μύκλαι are `black stripes at the neck and feet of an ass', after EM594, 18 and sch. Lyc. 771 μύκλος is properly `a callous fold at the neck of an ass'.Other forms: Cf. μύσκλοι below.Derivatives: Besides μυχλός, after H. Phocaean name of a breeder-ass, but also = σκολιός, ὀχευτής, λάγνης, μοιχός, ἀκρατής; cf. also μύσκλοι σκολιοί H.Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: As μυχλός may stand for *μυκσλός (Schwyzer 327), it may be identified with Lat. mūlus `mule', if from * mucslos; a deviating formation is shown by Alb. mušk `mule' as well as by the Slav. forms, e.g. ORuss. mъskъ, Russ. (CSlav.) mesk `mule' (from Illyrian ?). As the breeding of mules originates from Pontic Asia Minor (cf. on ὄνος), we have here prob. a wandering word. (Frisk adds that this makes genetic identitity of μυχλός and mūlus doubtful, which I do not think.) Further there is the unaspirated μύκλος with the (original?) meaning `black stripe etc.', which must be explained (Fur. 299 n. 25 thinks that this is a separate word.) -- Further details in W.-Hofmann s. mūlus, also Vasmer s. mesk. Thevariants, notably k\/ks and sk, are typical for Pre-Greek.Page in Frisk: 2,267-268Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > μύκλος
