Chantr. notes that the word is originally used of the growth of damaged tissue; he translates <b class="b3">ἄλθετο χείρ</b> with "le bras se guérit". - However, the meaning [[heal]] is not evidently connected with <b class="b3">ἀλ-</b> [[grow]], [[feed]]; the glosses give systematically the meaning [[heal]] etc.; [[θεραπεία]] means also [[medical or surgical treatment]]; [[θερμασία]] is less clear (false reading?); [[αὔξει]] also deviates (is it for [[ἀλδαίνω]]?). - The name [[Ἄλθηπ]]/[[φος]] is clearly Pre-Greek (cf. the river [[Αἴσηπος]]); so may be [[Ἀλθαία]] (the suffix <b class="b3">-αια</b>, <b class="b3">-εια</b> is also known in Pre-Greek); but we cannot be sure that the names belong to the verb. - An alternative etymology connects Skt. <b class="b2">r̥dhnóti</b> [[obtain luckily]], Rix MSS 27 (1970) 88 and Mayrhofer EWAia 1, 118.
