2 ἑλίκωψ
Grammatical information: adj.Meaning: said of the Άχαιοι,Other forms: always plur. nom. or acc. - ωπες, - ωπας (Il., verse end), f. ἑλικῶπις, - ιδος (Α 98 κούρη, Hes. Th. 298 νύμφη; also Sapph., Pi.).Origin: GR [a formation built with Greek elements]X [probably]Etymology: From ἕλιξ (s. d.) and ὠπ- (on the 2. member Schwyzer 426 n. 4, Sommer Nominalkomp. 1), so prop. `with eyes that make a turn', i. e. `with curved eyes'; like ἑλικο-βλέφαρος (h. Hom. 6, 19 etc.) `beautifully(?) curved eyes' (cf. H. ἑλικοβλέφαρος καλλιβλέφαρος)? Bechtel Lex., Düntzer KZ 12, 17. Diff. Prellwitz Glotta 15, 128ff.: "with curls" (cf. H. ἑλίκωπες οὑλότριχες). - The interpretation `with rolling = quickly moving (lively) eyes' (s. Bq; also Brouzas ProceedAmPhilAss. 1930, p. XXVIIf.) is based on ἑλίσσω, hardly correct. On the basis of ἑλίκωπες as μελανόφθαλμοι in H. an adjective ἑλικός = μέλας was coined; thus, except H., Call. Fr. 299 a. o., s. Leumann Hom.
