# ὠτειλή
## Ancient Greek
### Etymology

The formation is unclear and the etymology controversial. Greek formations which are candidates to be cognate are γατάλαι (gatálai, “scars”), βωτάζειν (bōtázein, “to throw, cast”), οὐτάω (outáō, “to wound”) and, less probable, ἄτη (átē, “damage, guilt, blindness”).
