στάχυς

Ancient Greek

Probably from Proto-Indo-European *ste(n)gʰ- (“to stick”), cognate with Proto-Germanic *stinganą, Lithuanian stangus (“fixed, stiff”), Latvian stingt (“to harden”). However, the variant ἄσταχυς (ástakhus) could also suggest a Pre-Greek origin; compare στόνυξ (stónux, “sharp point”) and στόχος (stókhos, “erection of stone”).
