Θεσσαλός

Ancient Greek

Alternative forms

Θεττᾰλός (Thettalós) — Attic
Πετθᾰλός (Petthalós) — Thessalian
Φεττᾰλός (Phettalós) — Boeotian

Etymology

From Proto-Hellenic *kʷʰeťťalós, from Pre-Greek. But compare *kʷoiwéō (“to make, produce, invent”), from Proto-Indo-European *kʷoywós, from *kʷey- (“pile, stow, to gather”). The variation of the initial consonant between Θ (Th) and Φ (Ph) in different dialects is the reason for reconstructing a labiovelar *kʷʰ.
