[[pusā]]) [[band of the forehead]], [[diadem]] [but see s.v.]. Of the many further representatives of this great and difficult to limit wordgroup may only still be mentioned Skt. <b class="b2">stambha-</b> m. <b class="b2">making fest, stem, support, post, pillar</b>, Lith. <b class="b2">stam̃bas</b> [[stump]], [[stalk of a plant]], Latv. [[stabs]] [[pillar]], Germ. e.g. OHG [[stabēn]] [[be fixed]], [[stiff]] (Eastfris. [[staf]] [[stiff]], [[lame]]), OWNo. [[stefja]] [[stem]], OHG [[stab]], OWNo. [[stafr]] [[staff]]; IE <b class="b2">*stebh-</b>, <b class="b2">stembh-</b> (WP. 2, 623ff., Pok. 1011 ff.). -- As Skt. <b class="b2">stambha-</b> can also mean [[bumptiousness]], [[pretentious being]], the question has arisen, whether also [[στόμφος]] [[bombastic]], [[highflown speech]] belongs here; cf. on [[στέμβω]]. With <b class="b2">stabhnā́ti</b> etc. are often connected [[στέμβω]] [wrongly, s.v.], [[ἀστεμφής]] etc. assuming a meaning complex <b class="b2">press, stamp, stem, support, post etc.</b> (s. WP. and Pok. l. c.), a combination, which goes beyond what can be proven. -- Diff. on [[στέφω]], [[στέφανος]] Lidén Streitberg-Festgabe 224ff.: to NPers. <b class="b2">tāǰ</b> [[corona]], [[diadema regium]], Arm. <b class="b2">t`ag</b> <b class="b2">id.</b>, ev. also to Osset. multiplicative suffix <b class="b2">-daɣ</b> (W. Oss. [[dudaɣ]]) with a basic meaning [[wind]], [[wrap]], [[fold]]; would be IE *(<b class="b2">s)tegʷʰ-</b>. == Frisk's discussion is completely dated. It is hampered by Pok. 1011, where (<b class="b2">*stebh-</b>. <b class="b2">*stembh-</b> and <b class="b2">*step-</b> are conbined; this is impossible in IE, so the grouping can best be completely dismissed (presence beside absence of a nasal is impossible, as is [[bh]]/[[b]]/[[p]].) Skt. <b class="b2">stabhnáti</b> has a root <b class="b2">*stembhH-</b>/<b class="b2">*stm̥bhH-</b>, which cannot give Gr. <b class="b3">στεφ-</b>, not <b class="b3">στεμβ-</b>. It might be found in [[ἀστεμφής]]. = [[σταφυλή]] and [[στέμφυλον]] are a Pre-Greek group and have nothing to do with IE. = The argumentation around [[ἄμπυξ]] (s.v.) can better be abandoned. = For [[στέφω]] one expects *stebh- (without nasal), but no such root has been found; the Geranic words for <b class="b2">staff (Stab)</b> have a quite diff. meaning. = So [[στέφω]] has no etym.
