ΙΙΙ. = ἐλεφαντίασις, Ἀρετ. π. Αἰτ. Χρον. Παθ. 2. 13, Συλλ. Ἐπιγρ. 916. IV. πολύτιμός τις λίθος, Θεοφρ. π. Λίθ. 37. V. εἶδος ποτηρίου, Ἀθήν. 468F.

Frisk Etymological English

-αντος
Grammatical information: m.
Meaning: ivory, elefant-tooth (Il.; cf. Treu Philol. 99, 149ff.), elefant (Hdt.), also as the name of a disease = ἐλεφαντίασις, s. Strömberg Theophrastea 193.
Dialectal forms: Myk. e-re-pa, -to, -te /elephas/ etc.
Compounds: As 1. member in both meanings, ἐλεφαντό-πους with ivory feet (Pl. Com.), ἐλέφας -μάχος fighting elephants (Str.).
Derivatives: Diminut. ἐλεφαντίσκιον young elephant (Ael.); adj. ἐλεφάντινος of ivory (Alc., Att.), -ίνεος id. (inscr.; on the formation Chantr. Form. 203), ἐλεφάντ-ειος belonging to an elephant (Dsc., Opp.), -ώδης elephant-like (Mediz.), -ιωδής suffering from eleph.

Frisk Etymology German

ἐλέφας: -αντος
{eléphās}
Grammar: m.
Meaning: Elfenbein, Elefantenzahn (seit Il.; vgl. Treu Philol. 99, 149ff.), Elefant (Hdt., Arist. usw.), auch als Name einer Krankheit = ἐλεφαντίασις, s. Strömberg Theophrastea 193. Myk. e-re-pa, -to, -te usw.
Composita : Als Vorderglied in beiden Bedeutungen, z. B. ἐλεφαντόπους mit elfenbeinernen Füßen (Pl. Kom. u. a.), ~ -μάχος gegen Elefanten kämpfend (Str. u. a.).
Derivative: Ableitungen: Deminutivum ἐλεφαντίσκιον junger Elefant (Ael.); Adj. ἐλεφάντινος aus Elfenbein (Alk., att.), -ίνεος ib. (poet.

Etymology : Wie lat. ebur ist ἐλέφας (zur Bildung vgl. ἀδάμας Stahl, Diamant) ein Fremdwort. Das Endstück von ἐλέφας (vom ντ-Suffix abgesehen) erinnert wie lat. eb-ur an ägypt. āb(u), kopt. εβ(ο)υ Elefant, Elfenbein, aind. íbha- Elefant; die Anfangssilbe kehrt in hamit. eḷu Elefant (woraus durch ägypt.
