Because of the technical nature of the word a loan from a Mediterranean language is clearly most probable (Schrader-Nehring Reallex. 2, 207), though up to now no convincing connection has been found (to be rejected Lewy Fremdw. 128). Old connection with [[πορφύρω]] (Curtius 303 w. lit.) does not convince factually, but secondary mutual inflence is undeniable.
