(With <b class="b3">ἑλένη</b> cf <b class="b3">ὠλένη</b>, Aeol. <b class="b3">φερενα</b>; so prob. assimilation of <b class="b3">ἑλάνη</b> (s.

But it is clearly wrong, as it is most probably a Pre-Greek word. (Not to <b class="b3">εἵλη</b> <b class="b2">heat of the sun,</b> (Solmsen Unt. 196).

Die Heranziehung von [[εἵλη]] ‘Sonnenwärme, -hitze’ (s. Solmsen Unt. 196), die auch semantisch nicht ganz ohne Bedenken ist, scheidet somit aus.<br />'''Page''' 1,481
