1 ἐπί-κῡφος

2 κύπτω
Grammatical information: v.Meaning: `bend forward, stoop, (run) with the head down' (IA).Derivatives: ἐπί-, κατά-, παρά-, πρό-κυψις `stoopng' (medic., hell.); συγκύπ-ται pl. `rafters, sloping beams' (Ath. Mech.), παρακυπτ-ικός `looking inside, inspect inquisitively' ( Cod. Iust.). Adv. κύβ-δα `bent forward' (Archil., com.). Enlarged present κυπτάζω `keep stooping, go poking about' (com.). - Besides κῡφός `bent forwards, hunchbacked' (β 16) with several derivv.: κύφων, - ωνος m. `bent yoke of the plough, pillory, who has had is neck in a pillory, curved beam etc.' (Thgn., Archil., com. etc.) with κυφώνιον kind of salve (Alex. Trall.), - ισμός `punishment by the κ,' (sch.); κυφότης `being bent' (Hld.), κῦφος n. `hump, hunch' (Hdn.; Schwyzer 512). Denomin. κυφόομαι `be bent, humpbacked' with κύφωσις `being humpbacked', - ωμα `hump' (medic.); as backformation (to κυφός or κέκυφα?) κύφω in κύφοντα ὀφθαλμοῖς `with downcast eyes' (LXX). - With factitive meaning κυπόω `overthrow', only ( ἀνα-) κυπώσας (Lyc., Nic.); after τύπτω (: τύπος): τυπόω?Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: As κῡφός is in Greek isolated in its formation, it may be original as against the regular κύπτω (with old perfect κέκῡφα?). κυφός has been compared with Skt. kubhrá- m. `humpbacked bull', kubjá- `humpbacked, curved', for which recently mundide origin has been claimed; a reduplicated formation is found in Skt. kakúbh- f. `top, summit, hump'. Directe comparison of κῦφος n. with Av. kaōfa- m. `mountain, camel-hump' (Brandenstein Μνήμης χάριν 1, 53) is deceptive, as κῦφος was built in Greek to κυφός. Of words with final -p- may be mentioned Lith. kuprà, OHG hovar `hump'. Uncertain is the relation to diverse glosses as κύφερον η κυφήν κεφαλήν. Κρῆτες H. (cf. Bechtel Dial. 2, 789) [prob.not here; see 2. κύμβη], also words for `pot, jar' as Skt. kumbhá-, Av. xumba- m. (cf. Sturtevant Lang. 17, 10). Cf. further on κύπελλον, 1. κύμβη, κύβος, κυψέλη. The variation κυφ- κυπ- rather points to a Pre-Greek word; there is no good IE comparandum.Page in Frisk: 2,52-53Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > κύπτω

3 κυβιστάω
Grammatical information: v.Meaning: `tumble head forward' (Il., Pl., X.)Other forms: - έω Opp. K. 4, 263.Derivatives: κυβιστητήρ `who tumbles head forward' (Hom., E., Tryph.; Fraenkel Nom. ag. 2,13), also with haplology κυβιστήρ (H.) and κυβιστής (Delos; uncertain; cf. Fraenkel Glotta 2, 31 n. 2 and below); κυβίστησις (Plu., Luk.), - ημα (Luc.) `somersault'.Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: Expressive verb with unclearer formation and unknown origin. The verbs in -( σ)τ- present nothing comparable with κυβιστάω; formations as ἑρπυστάζω (: ἑρπύζω, ἕρπω) a. o. (Schwyzer 706) suggest a *κυβίζομαι (evtl. through κυβιστής; s. above). - One compares since Curtius and Fick (s. Bq and WP. 1, 375) a few words given in EM: κύβη = κεφαλή ( κυβιστάω = εἰς κεφαλην πηδῶ), κύβηβος = ὁ κατακύψας, κυβηβᾶν ' κυρίως τὸ ἐπὶ την κεφαλην ῥίπτειν' (after H. = θεοφορεῖσθαι, κορυβαντιᾶν); further κυβητίζω ἐπὶ κεφαλην ῥίψω, κυβησίνδα ἐπὶ κεφαλήν, η τὸ φορεῖν ἐπὶ νώτου, η κατὰ νώτου H. Further κύμβη `head' (EM 545, 27) and κύμβαχος `head formost', ἀνακυμβαλιάζω. See Kuiper, Gedenkschrift Kretschmer 213f. (Not better Frisk, who wants to consider rather κύβος `dice'.) All the words would belong to κυφός, κύπτω. Frisk assumes that the word is northern, because of the β for φ; but there is no reason to connect κυφός.). So we have κυ(μ)β-, κυμ- `head' which is clearly Pre-Greek. - S. also Szemerényi, Sprache 11 (1966) 2 a. 6. Not with Prellwitz to κόβαλος; cf.
