ἄσβολος
Ancient Greek
editAlternative forms
edit- ἀσβόλη (asbólē)
Etymology
editFurnée suggests a Pre-Greek origin, in view of the rare cluster "-σβ-" and the variant σποδός (spodós, “ashes”). According to Beekes, the word is also connected with ψόλος (psólos, “soot, smoke”) and σπολεύς (spoleús, “loaf of bread”). Compare also ἄσφαλτος (ásphaltos, “bitumen, asphalt”).
