Etymology

edit

According to Solders (based on Heshychius) the word pella (λίθος, stone), is an Ancient Macedonian word. ( Nilsson Vol I p.558). In Homeric Greek it means wooden bowl. Beekes suggests that the word is derived from a Pre-Greek form "pelsa". These must be mentioned in the article. Jestmoon(talk) 10:29, 7 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
