|etymtx=Grammatical information: f.<br />Meaning: <b class="b2">bee-bread</b> (a kind of wax) (Arist. Varr. Plin.); Hesychius comments: <b class="b3">ἡ ὑπὸ τῶν μελισσῶν παρατιθεμένη τροφή καὶ τὸ ἐγκοίλιον τῶν ἰχθύων τῶν μαλακῶν καὶ τὰ τῶν ὑῶν ἔμβρυα</b>. I add the comment of DELG: "The gloss gives two informations: on the one hand the meaning <b class="b2">interior of the crustacaeans</b> which arose from the resemblance between the two materials explains the adjective <b class="b3">ἐριθακώδης</b> (`full of <b class="b3">ἐριθάκη</b>'), epithet of <b class="b3">γραῖαι</b> (crabs) (Épich. 61); on the other hand, it appears that the <b class="b2">bee-bread</b> was - wrongly - considered as food of the bees [in reality they use it to close openings in the walls of the bee-hive], which would explain the connection with <b class="b3">ἔριθος</b>, cf. s.u." The latter remark is not very clear to me; perhaps Chantraine refers to the fact that <b class="b3">ἐριθακίς</b> means <b class="b2">worker-bee</b>.<br />Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]X [probably]<br />Etymology: Acc. to Nehring Gl. 14 (1925) 183 Pre-Greek. On the connection with <b class="b3">ἔριθος</b> see above. | |||
