3 κρητήρ
κρητήρ, ῆρος ( κεράννῦμι): mixingbowl, wassail-bowl, in which wine and water were mingled, to be distributed in cups; two parts of wine to three of water was a common mixture; κρητῆρα μίσγεσθαι, στήσασθαι, ‘set up,’ place at hand. The wassail-bowl was usually placed near the hearth, and often on a tripod (esp. when several κρητῆρες were in use at the banquet); the contents were poured into the cups ( δέπαα) by means of a filler ( πρόχοος, pitcher), Od. 3.339. Cut No. 8 shows (1) the ἀμφιφορεύς, from which the wine was poured into the upper, smaller mixing-bowl, on which the πρόχοος stands. The second mixing-bowl served to contain the water, and then the contents of both bowls may be imagined as mixed in the largest bowl, which stands upon the tripod, and from which the diluted wine was distributed.

4 κόμβος
Grammatical information: m.Meaning: `roll, band, girth' (Anon. ap. Suid.);Compounds: as 1. member in κομβο-λύτης βαλαντιοτόμος H., κομβο-θηλεία f. `buckle' (sch.; from κόμβος θῆλυς [ θήλεια]); also κομπο-θηλαία `band, girth' (sch.) and κομπο-θήλυκα pl. (Hippiatr.; v. l. for πόρπακας) after κόμπος = `boast'(?).Derivatives: κομβίον = περόνη (Eust., Sch.), κομβώσασθαι στολίσασθαι, κόμβωμα στόλισμα H., κομβώματα = καλλωπίσματα etc. (Suid., H.). Better attested is the hypostasis ἐγκομβόομαι `bind on, draw on' (Epich., hell. Com., 1 Ep. Pet. 5, 5) with ἐγκόμβωμα `protecting upper garment worn by slaves' (Longus, Thd.); further ἀνακομβόομαι `gird oneself' (Gp.).Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: Technical word without certain explanation. One compares since Fick 1, 383; 3, 71, Zupitza Die germ. Gutt. 22f. on the one hand some Baltoch-Slavic words for `hang etc.', e. g. Lith. kabìnti `hang on, hook on', kìbti `hang on oneself, hook on', S.-Csl. skoba `fibula', Russ. skobá `iron hook, clamp', on the other Gr. σκαμβός `crooked (legs)', Σκόμβος PN (after Bechtel KZ 44, 358 "the limper"); further the isolated Norw. hempa `Kleiderstrippe, strap, handle' (can hardly be separated from hamp `hemp'). "Das Resultat dieser Vergleiche ist offenbar eine sowohl lautlich wie begrifflich wenig befriedigende Approximation." Frisk - Pok. 918, W.-Hofmann s. cambiō and campus, Vasmer s. skobá. - The IE connections are quite dubious. The forms κομβοθηλεία, κομποθηλαία, κομποθήλυκα clearly show a Pre-Greek word (a confusion of κόμβος with κόμπος is improbable, so the variation β\/π points to a Pre-Greek word; note also the variation - εια, - αια (and - υκα!), which we have seen more often in Pre-Greek (Beekes, Pre-Greek, suffixes sub - αι\/- ε(ι)). But does it contain the word κόμβος? The derivation of the second element from θῆλυς is clearly wrong.Page in Frisk: 1,907-908Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > κόμβος

(EM, H.); ἐκορυπτίας ἐγαυρίας H.Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: Formation with φ-suffix (Schwyzer 495, Chantraine 264), from an υ-stem (but the word is non-IE!), which some see in κόρυς; the meaning speaks against this deriv. - Wrong combinations in Bezzenberger-Fick BB 6, 237 (s.

6 οὑρανός
Grammatical information: m.Meaning: `heaven, sky' (Il.), also personified (Hes.).Compounds: Often as 1. member, e.g. οὑρανο-μήκης `sky-high' (ε 239); in hypostases like ἐπ-ουράν-ιος `in the sky' (Il.).Derivatives: 1. Dimin. οὑρανίσκος m. `tent-roof, palate' (hell.), also name of a constellation (sch.; Scherer Gestirnnamen 193); 2. οὑράν-ιος `heavenly' (Pi., IA.), - ίς f. (AP); - ία f. name of one of the Muses (Hes.); 3. Οὑραν-ίωνες ( θεοί) m. pl. `the heavenly (gods)' (Hom., Hes.), also `the Titans' (Ε 898; from Οὑρανός); - ίδης, Dor. -ίδᾱς `son of Ouranos', pl. `the Titans', also `the heavenly' (Hes., Pi.; Fraenkel Nom. ag. 2, 20); 4. Οὑραν-ιάς f. `game to worship Ourania' (Sparta); 5. οὑραν-ίζω or - ίζομαι `to go up high' (A.Fr. 766 M.), - ιάζω `to toss up high' (H. s. οὑρανίαν), - οῦσθαι `raised up into the sky, to become deified' with - ωσις (Eust.).Origin: XX [etym. unknown]Etymology: As the Aeol. variation ὠρ-, ὀρ- prob. represents a geminated ὀρρ- (Wackernagel Unt. 136 n. 1), the basis will have been *(Ϝ)ορσανός with accent as ὀρφανός and so perh. from a noun *(Ϝ)ορσό- = Skt. varṣá- n. m. `rain' (cf. Wackernagel KZ 29, 129 = Kl. Schr. 1,632). As e.g. ὄχανον, ξόανον can go back to ἔχω, ξέω, οὑρανός can as nom. ag. belong to a primary verb *Ϝερσ- = Skt. várṣati `rain'; it can however also be derived from the iterative οὑρέω (s. v.), like Indo-Ir. nouns in - ana are connected with second. verbs in - ayati ( = Gr. - έω, Wack.-Debrunner II: 2, 198ff.); meaning then "rainmaker" or metaph. "moistener, impregnator" (Wackernagel l.c.; cf. ἕρση). -- After Specht KZ 66, 199ff. (with Schulze), Fraenkel (s.Wb. s. viršùs) a.o. as "der zur Höhe in Beziehung stehende" to Skt. varṣman- m. n. `hight', Lith. viršùs `upper, highest seat', to which one connected also Ἔρρος ὁ Ζεύς H. (IE *u̯er-s- WP. 1, 267, Pok. 1151f.?); neither factually nor formally to be preferred. It has also been suggested that the word is of foreign, i.e. Pre-Greek, origin (DELG); note that - αν- is difficult to account for if the word were of IE origin. -- Against the old, often repeated but certainly wrong identification with the Skt. gods name Varuṇaḥ s. except Wackernagel l.c. also Thieme Mitra and Aryaman (Trans. Connecticut Acad. 41 [1957]) 60.Page in Frisk: 2,446-447Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > οὑρανός
