ῥώθων
See also: ρώθων
Ancient Greek
editEtymology
editThe formation is the same as in πώγων (pṓgōn) and γνάθων (gnáthōn), but the root is unknown. Usually, ῥόθος (rhóthos, “roaring”) is connected, which presupposes an original meaning "snorer", "rattler". Alternatively, one could consider a Pre-Greek origin for this word.
