(Chantraine Form. 195); - άκνη for - ίκνη (from - ίχνη n-. breathdissim.) because of ι in πιθ-[? improbable]; Att. φιδ- for φιτ- (cf. χιτών) after φείδομαι?; πιθάκνιον n. (Eub., Hyp., Luc.), - νίς f., φιδ- (Poll.). -- Other derivv.: 1. diminut. πιθ-ίσκος m. (Plu. Cam. 20), - άριον n. (H., EM); 2. πιθ-(ε)ών, - ῶνος m. `cellar' (com., inscr.

Great similarity show Lat. fidēlia f. `vase of clay, glass etc.', whih may stand for * fides-liā, and some northgerm. words, e.g. OWNo. biða f. `milktub'. So it would be a a very old designation of a vessel; common IE basis * bhidh-. Details a. rich lit. (and further connection with * bheidh- `bind' which is to be rejected) in W.-Hofmann s.v.; also WP. 2, 185 and Pok. 153. -- Lat. fiscus deviates semantically and is phonetically unclear. - The Myc. form shows that this is a Pre-Greek word. Also φιδ- is problematic.Page in Frisk: 2,534-535Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > πίθος
