Meaning: κώϊον ἐνέχυρον; κοῦα, κῶα ἐνέχυρα H.
Derivatives: κοιάζει ἐνεχυράζει, κουάσαι ἐνεχυριάσαι, κωάζειν ἐνεχυράζειν, κωαθείς ἐνεχυριασθείς H. As agent noun here κο(ι)ακτήρ name of a Myster-sevant in Sparta (IG 5: 1, 210ff.). = ἐνεχυρασ- τής? (Fraenkel Nom. ag. 1, 158 after Meister); other explanations in Bourguet Dial. Lac. 112f.
Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]
Etymology: Acc. to v. Blumenthal Hesychst. 41 from *κόϜ-ιον to κοέω remark, pay attention with the same semantic development as in Lat. cavēre care for onseself, be a good civilian. Acc. to v. B. here also κοίης, κόης ἱερεὺς Καβείρων, ὁ καθαίρων φονέα (H.) with κοιόλης ὁ ἱερεύς (H., Suid.), κοιᾶται ἱερᾶται, κοιώσατο ἀφιερώσατο, καθιερώσατο H. But cf. also Lyd. kaveś (Masson Jb. f. kleinas. Forsch. 1, 182ff.). DELG adds κωταρχής priest (Didyma). After Bochart (Lewy Fremdw. 258) Sem., cf. Hebr. kōhēn pries; thus Grimme Glotta 14, 19. - Even more uncertain is κοῖος = ἀριθμός (Ath. 10, 455e; Maced.; prop. "Kenner (=one who knows)" [??], v. B. ibid.). If Pre-Greek from *kuwy-? It could also be an Anatolian word.

Derivative: Davon κοιάζει· ἐνεχυράζει, κουάσαι· ἐνεχυριάσαι, κωάζειν· ἐνεχυράζειν, κωαθείς· ἐνεχυριασθείς H. Als Nomen agentis dazu κο(ι)ακτήρ N. eines Mysteriendieners in Sparta (IG 5: 1, 210ff.). = ἐνεχυρασ- τής? (Fraenkel Nom. ag. 1, 158 nach Meister); andere Erklärungsversuche bei Bourguet Dial. Lac. 112f.
Etymology: Wohl mit v. Blumenthal Hesychst. 41 aus *κόϝιον zu κοέω bemerken, aufpassen mit derselben Bedeutungsentwicklung wie in lat. cavēre sich vorsehen, Bürgschaft leisten. Nach v. B. hierher auch κοίης, κόης· ἱερεὺς Καβείρων, ὁ καθαίρων φονέα (H.) mit κοιόλης· ὁ ἱερεύς (H., Suid.), κοιᾶται· ἱερᾶται, κοιώσατο· ἀφιερώσατο, καθιερώσατο H. Vgl. auch lyd. kaveś (Masson Jb. f. kleinas. Forsch. 1, 182ff.). Nach Bochart (Lewy Fremdw. 258) sem., vgl. hebr. kōhēn Priester; ebenso Grimme Glotta 14, 19. — Noch unsicherer ist die Heranziehung von κοῖος = ἀριθμός (Ath. 10, 455e; maked.; eig. "Kenner" [??], v. B. ibid.).
