  • 4 βέκος

    Grammatical information: m.
    Meaning: `bread' (Hdt. 2,2)
    Origin: IE [Indo-European]X [probably] [114] * bʰeg- `bake'.
    Etymology: Given by Herodotus as Phrygian, which seems confirmed by its occurrence in Phr. inscriptions. Hipponax (fr. 125 Masson) seems to give it as Cyprian (where it might have come from Phrygian?); s. Masson 167f. Solmsen KZ 34 (1897) 70. Fur. 297 compares βέσκεροι ἄρτοι ὑπο Λακώνων H.: "eine altes vorgriechisches Restwort, das sich in drei entlgenen Gebieten (Zentral-Kleinasien, Kypros, Peloponnesos) behauptet hat." This would fit Herodotus' story that it is the oldest word to be found in the world.
