Grammatical information: m.Meaning: `ring, at the end of a carriage-pole, on a sail, curtain-ring, arm-, fingerring etc.' (Ω 272, Hdt. 2, 36, Arist., Thphr., hell. inscr.);Compounds: Rarely as 1. member, e.g. in κρικ-ηλασία `trundling of hoops' (Antyll. ap. Orib. 6, 26. 1).Derivatives: κιρκίον `small ring' (Delos IIa), κρικέλ(λ)ιον `id.' (Alex. Trall., sch.; like ψέλ(λ)ιον; cf. Lat. circellus); κρικωτός `consisting of rings' (hell.); cf. κρικόομαι `be fastened with a ring' (Str.) with κρίκωσις (Heliod. ap. Orib.), - ωμα (Eust.); κιρκόω `fetter with a ring' (A. Pr. 74). Several H.-glosses: κρικάδεια τὸ ἐναλ-λάξαι τοὺς δακτύλους ὥσπερ [+] κρυβούς; ἐγκρικάδεια συναφη χειρῶν εἰς τοὑπίσω; ἐγκρίκια ξύλα κεκκαμμένα.Etymology: Not to Κίρκη (Fick KZ 44, 347); against this Güntert Kalypso 16. - On κιρσός ( κρισσός, κριξός) s. v. If IE, κίρκος is phonetically impossible; also on chronological grounds κρίκος must be original; from there with transposition κίρκος (Schwyzer 267, Lejeune Traité de phon. 122). Further analysis is quite hypothetical; both IE - kri-k-o- (Hofmann) and * ki-kr-o- \> * kriko- (WP. 2, 569) bring the word in the all-covering family ( s)ker- `turn, bend' (Pok. 935). - To κιρκος, as LW [loanword], Lat. circus `circle ' (Thurneysen in the Thes., Hofmann, Ernout Aspects du vocab. latin 69); acc. to others, e.g. WP., (Ernout -)-Meillet s. circus, old cognate (because of circum); from circus through back-loaning hell. a. late κίρκος `id.'; from there and from circulus the Westeurop. forms.Page in Frisk: 2,19-20Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > κρίκος
