θρύον

See also: Θρύον

Ancient Greek

Alternative forms

θρῠ́σῐος (thrúsios), θρῠ́σῐς (thrúsis)

Etymology

Formally, one may compare βρύον (brúon), but further details are unclear. The connection with Proto-Slavic *trъstь (“cane”) is impossible because of the anlaut. The variants point to a Pre-Greek origin, which is not unexpected in the case of a plant name.
