Etymology : Zu ξύλον (woraus auf jüngeren att. Vasen σύλον, σύλινος; Schwyzer 211 m. Lit.) stimmt lit. šùlas ‘(Eimer-, Tonnen-) Stab, Ständer, Pfeiler’, wenn aus idg. *ḱsulo-; daneben, im Vokal abweichend, mehrere slav. Formen, z.B. russ. šúlo n. Zaunpfahl, skr. šûlj m. Block (idg. *ḱseulo-?). Ähnlich mit ū und anlaut. s-, germ., z.B. ahd. sūl f. Pfosten, Säule, mit au (idg. ou?) got. sauls Säule. Wie sich die slav., balt. und germ. Wörter zueinander verhalten, ist lebhaft diskutiert worden und kaum. endgültig aufgeklärt; s. Vasmer und Fraenkel s. vv. mit reicher Lit. und weiteren Formen. Ältere Lit. auch bei Bq, WP. 2, 503 f. und W.-Hofmann s. silva. Mann Slavon. Rev. 37, 134 zieht noch heran alb. shul Stange, Nagel, Hebel. — Ursprüngliche Verbindung mit ξύω (z.B. Fick 3, 446, auch als Vermutung Schwyzer 329) ist nicht glaubhaft, sekundäre Beeinflussung (Chantraine Form. 240) gut denkbar.
