Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]
Etymology: In the variations Solmsen saw like Bechtel Lex. s. v. evidence for Anatolian origin; thus Schwyzer 61. See Heubeck, Praegraeca 66 and 80. Pre-Greek, Fur. 129, 286, , 349, 379, 393.The form with ἴσκλ- shows syncopeof the α\/ε, that with ἰσχαλ- metathesis; α\/ε is well known. I suggest that the word had *iktyal- with a palatalized t as second consonant. See Beekes, Pre-Greek, 5.5.
