ἀνάγυρος

Ancient Greek

Alternative forms

ἀνάγυρις (anáguris), ὀνόγυρος (onóguros)

Etymology

The form with ὀνο- might point to a substrate, Pre-Greek word, as α/ο is frequent in such words. Amigues starts from Medieval Latin faba inversa (“inverted bean”) and connects it with γυρός (gurós, “round”).
