ἱέραξ
Ancient Greek
Etymology
From Proto-Hellenic *ϝῑρᾱξ, from Proto-Indo-European *wih₁rós (“hunter; man”), from Proto-Indo-European *weyh₁- (“to chase, pursue”), assuming an older Greek form *ϝῑρᾱξ (*wīrāx), with possible contamination from folk-etymological association with ἱερός (hierós, “holy, divine”).
