I add the comment of DELG: "The gloss gives two informations: on the one hand the meaning [[interior of the crustacaeans]] which arose from the resemblance between the two materials explains the adjective [[ἐριθακώδης]] (`full of [[ἐριθάκη]]'), epithet of [[γραῖαι]] (crabs) (Épich. 61); on the other hand, it appears that the [[bee-bread]] was - wrongly - considered as food of the bees [in reality they use it to close openings in the walls of the bee-hive], which would explain the connection with [[ἔριθος]], cf. s.u." The latter remark is not very clear to me; perhaps Chantraine refers to the fact that [[ἐριθακίς]] means [[worker-bee]].<br />Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]X [probably]<br />Etymology: Acc. to Nehring Gl. 14 (1925) 183 Pre-Greek. On the connection with [[ἔριθος]] see above. | ||
