Talk:𐀀𐀠𐀡𐀩𐀸

Etymology

Perseus mentions that ἀμφορεύς is shortened from the earlier ἀμφιφορεύς having two handles.

These seem pertinent to the history and connection to this Linear B word:

• ἀμφί on both sides
• φορεύς carrier

We know that the Mycenaeans definitely made big enough amphora to need carriers on both sides: http://www.romesburg.com/exodus/index.html
