πλαίσιον
Ancient Greek
editEtymology
editNo relation with the synonymous πλινθίον (plinthíon), but a direct loan from Lydian 𐤡𐤩𐤠𐤳𐤬 (plašo, “socle”). This word is related to Hittite [script needed] (palzaḫ(ḫ)a-, “pedestal”). Furnée also appropriately adduces πλάτας (plátas, “basis of a tomb”), which is very likely to be Anatolian origin.
