German (Pape)

Greek (Liddell-Scott)
γέγειος: -ον, (πρβλ. γεῖος), ἐπὶ τῆς σημασίας τοῦ αὐτόχθων, ἴδε Βεντ. Καλλ. Ἀποσπ. 103, Ἑκαταῖ. Ἀποσπ. 366.
Frisk Etymological English
Grammatical information: adj.
Meaning: antique (Hecat.)
Origin: XX [etym. unknown]
Etymology: DELG remarks that the word never means of the earth, so that connection with γῆ is improbable. But it could mean earth-born = antique; thus LSJ.
