|etymtx=-αντος<br />Grammatical information: m. (τ 306 = ξ 161, A. R. 1. 198, Bion Fr. 15, 15, gravepigrams of empire from Arcadia and Ionia)<br />Meaning: time-indication of uncertain meaning, usually explained as [[year]] and by the laters, who seem all based on τ 306, used in this sense; acc. to Leumann Hom. Wörter 212 n. 4 rather [[new moon]] (against this Ruijgh L'élém. ach. 147). The supposed Arcadian origin (AB) prob. refers to the late Arcadian inscriptions, s. Leumann 273.<br />Other forms: (acc. also <b class="b3">-βαν</b>). Also [[λυκαμας]] (inscr. Amorgos, Kretchmer Glotta 2, 319).<br />Derivatives: <b class="b3">λυκαβαντίδες ὧραι</b> (AP).<br />Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]<br />Etymology: Etymologically quite unclear (on the formation Chantraine Form. 269, Schwyzer 526). The explanations are not very convincing: prop. "light-circle", from <b class="b3">*λύκ-</b> [[light]] (s. on [[λύχνος]]) and <b class="b3">ἄβα τροχός</b> H. (Fick GGA 1894, 240, Bechtel Lex. s. v., v. Blumenthal ZONF 13, 157); prop. "Lycianking (-priest, -god)", i.e. Apollon, elliptically for [[feast of Apollon]], lydian word like [[βασιλεύς]] (Fraser Streitberg-Festgabe 93ff.); prop. "wolfs-run" (E. Maaß IF 43, 259ff.); prop. "religion" (Theander Symb. Danielsson 349ff.). Cf. the remarks by Kretschmer Glotta 15, 198f.; 17, 214; 22, 262. - (Not here [[Λυκαβηττός]].) The variant with [[μ]] and the suffix <b class="b3">-αντ-</b> show a Pre-Greek word.

|ftr='''λυκάβας''': -αντος<br />{lukábas}<br />'''Forms''': (Akk. auch -βαν)<br />'''Grammar''': m. (τ 306 = ξ 161, A. R. 1. 198, Bion ''Fr''. 15, 15, Grabepigramme der Kaiserzeit aus Arkadien und Ionien)<br />'''Meaning''': Zeitangabe unsicherer Bed., gewöhnlich als [[Jahr]] erklärt und von den Späteren, die alle auf τ 306 zurückzugehen scheinen, in diesem Sinn gebraucht; nach Leumann Hom. Wörter 212 A. 4 eher [[Neumondstag]] (dagegen Ruijgh L’élém. ach. 147). Die angebliche arkadische Herkunft (''AB'') bezieht sich wahrscheinlich auf die späten arkad. Inschriften, s. Leumann 273.<br />'''Derivative''': Davon λυκαβαντίδες ὧραι (''AP'').<br />'''Etymology''': Etymologisch ganz dunkel (zur Bildung Chantraine Form. 269, Schwyzer 526). Die Erklärungsversuche sind wenig überzeugend: eig. "Lichtkreislauf", von *λύκ- [[Licht]] (s. zu [[λύχνος]]) und ἄβα· [[τροχός]] H. (Fick GGA 1894, 240, Bechtel Lex. s. v., v. Blumenthal ZONF 13, 157); eig. "Lykierkönig (-priester, -gott)", d.h. Apollon, elliptisch für [[Fest des Apollon]], lydisches Wort wie [[βασιλεύς]] (Fraser Streitberg-Festgabe 93ff.); eig. "Wolfslauf" (E. Maaß IF 43, 259ff.); eig. "Gottesdienst" (Theander Symb. Danielsson 349ff.); pelasgische Erklärungen von v. Windekens Beitr. z. Namenforsch. 5, 31 ff. und Carnoy Ant. class. 24, 19 f. Vgl. die kritischen Bemerkungen von Kretschmer Glotta 15, 198f.; 17, 214; 22, 262. — Auffallend und längst beobachtet ist die Ähnlichkeit mit dem Bergnamen [[Λυκαβηττός]].<br />'''Page''' 2,142-143
