φελλεύς
Ancient Greek edit
Etymology edit
The word has been connected with πέλλα (pélla, “stone”) in different ways. Furnée suggests that it shows Pre-Greek interchange π/φ. Alternatively, the word may be related to φελλός (phellós, “cork oak”), in reference to the unevene and porous structure of cork.
