    1 The Supreme Being, the Creator, the first deity of the sacred Hindu Trinity, to whom is en- trusted the work of creating the world. [The accounts of the creation of the world differ in many respects; but, according to Manu Smṛiti, the universe was enveloped in darkness, and the self-existent Lord manifested himself dispelling the gloom. He first created the waters and deposited in them a seed. This seed became a golden egg, in which he himself was born as Brahmā-- the progenitor of all the worlds. Then the Lord divided the egg into two parts, with which he constructed heaven and earth. He then created the ten Prajāpatis or mind-born sons who completed the work of creation. According to another account (Rāmāyaṇa) Brahmā sprang from ether; from him was descended marīchi, and his son was Kaśyapa. From Kaśyapa sprang Vivasvata, and Manu sprang from him. Thus Manu was the procreator of all human beings. According to a third account, the Supreme deity, after dividing the golden egg, separated himself into two parts, male and female, from which sprang Virāj and from him Manu; cf. Ku.2.7. and Ms.1.32 et seq. Mythologically Brahman is represented as being born in a lotus which sprang from the navel of Viṣṇu, and as creating the world by an illicit connection with his own daughter Sarasvatī. Brahman had originally five heads, but one of them was cut down by Śiva with the ring-finger or burnt down by the fire from his third eye. His vehicle is a swan. He has numerous epithets, most of which have reference to his birth, in a lotus.]

  • 17 σκόλοψ

    σκόλοψ, - οπος
    Grammatical information: m.
    Meaning: `pointed pole, palisade, prickle' (ep. ion. poet. Il., hell. a. late prose; Att. χάραξ, σταυρός, - ωμα).
    Derivatives: Dimin. σκολόπ-ιον n. (Antyll. ap. Orib.), - ηὶς μοῖρα `the destiny of being impaled' (Man.; after βασιλ-ηΐς a.o.); - ίζω `provide with σ.' ( Stad.) wit - ισμός m. `the impaling, the spearing' (Vett. Val.); often with ἀνα- `to stick on a pole, to impale' (Hdt. a. o.) with - ισις f. (sch., Eust.), ἀπο σκόλοψ `to remove the poles' (Aq.).
    Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]
    Etymology: Finally to the great family of σκάλλω (s. v.). As the labial can belong to the stem, σκόλοψ can first be connected with Lat. scalpō `scratch, cut with a sharp instrument etc.'; to this may be joined several words with varying meaning, partly also with varying form, e.g. OHG scelifa `membranous shell', Lith. sklem̃pti, sklem̃bti `plane smooth, cut oblique, sprinkle' etc., s. Bq s. σκάλοψ, WP. 2, 595, Pok. 926, W.-Hofmann s. scalpō. The dissillabicity of σκόλοψ is rather due to adaptation to the nouns in - οψ (a sequence *-ολψ or *-ορψ is unknown in Greek) than with Bechtel Lex. s. v. to a disyllabic root form [?] -- Beside σκόλοψ stands in quite different meaning σκάλοψ, - οπος m. `mole' (Ar. Ach. 879; also Cratin. 93 [- ωψ]) with σκαλοπία f. `mole-track' (Thphr. HP 7, 12, 3; tradit.. σκολ-, s. Scheller Oxytonierung 47 f.), clearly from σκάλλω with the in animal-names usual οπ-suffix (final); we may have to do with a folketym. justification of untransparent σπάλαξ (s. ἀσπάλαξ with a quite hypothetic etym.); s. Grégoire Byzantion 32, 32ff. -- As the variant with - φρ- shows, we have to do with a Pre-Greek word (influence of δίφρος is far-fatched); cf. Furnée 107. Words for `pole' etc. are often taken over from a substrate language. (Not in Furnée.)
