λαϝαγταει

Phrygian

Literally, “army leader”, with the constituents inherited from Proto-Indo-European *leh₂wos (“people (under arms)”), whence Ancient Greek λαός (laós), and *h₂eǵ- (“drive, lead”). A borrowing from the Hellenic cognate has also been suggested: compare Mycenaean Greek 𐀨𐀷𐀐𐀲 (ra-wa-ke-ta /⁠lāwāgetās⁠/, “military leader”), Doric Ancient Greek λᾱγέτᾱς (lāgétās, “leader of people”).
