Meaning: epithet of Apollo on Anaphe.
Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]
Etymology: The epithets Ἀπόλλων Ἀσγελάτας (Anaphe) and Ἀπόλλων Αἰγλάτας (Anaphe, Thera) are often compared, though they may be unrelated. The epithet of Apollo is typical of pre-Greek words. The explanation as Greek by Schwyzer 27 (ασ > αι[σ]) is rightly criticized by Chantr. s.v. αἴγλη; part of Schwyzer's evidence is itself Pre-Greek. We find the variation clearly in the name of Asklepios (q.v.): aC-/aiC- and asC-/aisC-; here we have (only) aiC- and asC-; Fur. 293, 295; see Beekes, Pre-Gr. Furnée further (234, 335) connects ἀγλα(Ϝ)ός (and ἄγλαυρος), which deserves consideration. Remarkable is the resemblance of Akkadian azugallatu great physician (Burkert, Orient. Revolution 1992, 78.) So prob. a loan through (Pre-)Anatolian/Pre-Greek. A connection with αἴγλη (q.v.) is improbable.
