|etymtx=Grammatical information: f.<br />Meaning: [[hedge]] (Nic.), pl.; cf. <b class="b3">ἀρπέζας τοὺς αἱμασιώδεις τόπους</b>. <b class="b3">οἱ δε τείχη καὶ περιβόλους</b>. <b class="b3">οἱ δε τὰ κλιμακώδη χωρία</b> H.).<br />Other forms: [[ἄρπεζος]] f. <b class="b2">ds.</b> (Mylasa). Cf. further <b class="b3">ἄρπισαι αἱμασιαί</b>. <b class="b3">η τάφρους</b> and <b class="b3">ἄρπιξ εἶδος ἀκάνθης</b>, [[Κύπριοι]] H. Also <b class="b3">ἀρπάναι· μάνδραι βοσκήματων</b>.<br />Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]<br />Etymology: [[Νο]] etymology. Connection with [[ἅρπη]], [[ἁρπεδόνη]], [[ἁρπάζω]] is not convincing. (Chantraine's suggestion that the basic meaning is <b class="b2">limit of a terrain</b>, and so perhaps connected with [[ἀρπεδόνη]], is improbable: it is something concrete in the terrain, functioning as boundary, like [[αἱμασία]].) The variation <b class="b3">-εζα</b>/<b class="b3">-ισα</b> is the typical type of variation found in substr. words.
