κισσύβιον
Ancient Greek edit
Alternative forms edit
- κισσύφιον (kissúphion)
Etymology edit
The ancients connected the word with κισσός (kissós, “ivy”), either after the material or after the ornamentation resembling ivy leaves. According to Beekes, the word is Pre-Greek, because of the variation β/φ.
