Frisk Etymological English

Grammatical information: f.
Meaning: Ilios, the city of Troy (Il.); -ιον only Il. 15, 71, always intragedy (E.)
Origin: Anat.
Etymology: In a treaty between the Hittite king Muwattalis II (1290-72) and Alaksandu (which is Homer's Alexander) of Wilusa, Wilusiya, a small state in the far north West of Anatolia. First considered by Kretschmer, Glotta 13 (1924) 205-13, it has in recent years been generally accepted that this refers to Schliemann's ruins. See e.g. Latacz, Troia und Homer, 2001, 98-119. There is no agreement on the interpretations of the Greek form Ϝίλιος (as the -s- would normally have been preserved; so this form must come from a variant without -s-); the Ϝ- is certain from Homer. On Troy see s.v. Τροίη (which was originally only the land). - Cf. on Apollon.
