Meaning: hunting spear, javelin (Il.).
Origin: XX [etym. unknown]
Etymology: For the suffix cf. the names of trees and animal skins in -έη, -έα, μηλέη, πτελέη, κυνέη usw. (Chantr. Form. 91f.). If named after the material, one compares oak PGm. *aik-, PIE *aig-, supposed also in αἰγίλωψ (q.v.) and Lat. aesculus; Schrader KZ 30, 461f. Trümpy Krieger. Fachausdrücke 52, 57 explains that it was thrown by a strap; further Vretska Gymnasium 61, 1954, 419. On that basis, Laser Gymnasium 60 (1953) 115-121 connects it with PIE *h₂eig- move (oneself), Skt. éjati, for which αἶγες κύματα (s. αἴξ) is compared. Improbable; if ej- belongs to iṅg- (EWAia I\/264), the root had a labio-velar, which makes the connection impossible. To αἰχμή Bechtel Lex.
