description: On the etymologies of Kypros (Cyprus), kyparissos (=the cypress tree), kypeiron (=Cyperus longus), kapparis (the caper plant), kypros (=Lawsonia inermis), sappheiros (=lapis lazuli in Ancient Greek), salamandra (=salamander). And many more new etymologies, such as new never-before revealed etymologies of Daco-Thracian Salmoxis/Zalmoxis, Gebeleixis/Gebeleizis, Zibelthiurdos/Zibelsiurdos, which are of extremely high certainty due to the odds of the way it matched up so exactly to something well-known in the mythology of storm gods in Europe. It’s extremely unlikely that these new etymologies of the Daco-Thracian Zeus are incorrect. This work definitely elucidates a number of ancient Eurasian and PIE roots and words and Semitic roots words. I have also found an Ancient Greek word previously unidentified: “aoia” meant “myrrh tree” on the island of Cyprus and in some other parts of the Ancient Greek world. This work can also be titled “Love and Thunder”, since I first discuss the etymology of Kypros, the island of Aphrodite the goddess of Love, then soon after that I discuss the etymologies of Zalmoxis, Gebeleixis, and Zibelthiurdos, three gods of Thunder. And I arranged it like this long before I knew that that would be the title of the new Thor movie from Marvel: they first made that title public in July 2019, but I did not know about that title in December 2020 when I published the first version with that arrangement.
description: Updated 12th version. This 12th version has a large amount of new work (not found in the 11th version) which I've Added to the "Cybele and Kug-ba-u" section which I have re-written, removing paragraphs that were no longer needed and adding new etymologies: I think that in this 12th version I have identified the correct etymology of Kubele: most likely Kubele meant "sprouting, rising" (referring to mountains and plants) in Phrygian, but possibly instead "fat, bulging, massive" (referring to mountains and the originally fat goddess of burgeoning plants and child-bearing). I have also added a new etymology of Attis/Attes which I think is correct, as well as a new etymology of Attica, Athens, and Athena which I think are correct, as well as a new etymology of Parthenos and of Ariyattis (though Ariyattis more likely derives from "to rise, spring up" due to Hittite Ari/Arai="to arise, to raise"). New material added in that section up to the point where I discuss Phrygian Bas and Phrygian Mas, which I compare with Sumerian Ba ("to give") and Sumerian Mas ("to give"). In the rest of the work, the only new material is a tweak to the Geb- etymology by adding PIE *ghombos as likely deriving from this same Geb, and in the Caballus section a quick clarification of how the meaning trestle/sawhorse arose from mare/gelded horse (see also Latin capra="trestle", comparing a four-legged trestle to a four-legged goat; see also English "sawhorse"). In the ninth and tenth versions I have removed the Kardamon/Kardzouliek work which will be given its own PDF soon; no change to those Kard- etymologies but I will add more to it. Till then that work can be seen in previous versions of this work (versions 8 through 1).
