Παρνασός
Ancient Greek
Alternative forms
Etymology
As proposed by Palmer, may be related to Luwian [script needed] (parnanza, “house”) (stem parna-) and productive possesive suffix [script needed] (-ašša-). A similar toponym [Anatolian Hieroglyphs needed] (pa+ra/i-na-sa), apparently a town in Anatolia, is attested in a hieroglyphic inscription on a Luwian monument found in Karkamıš (A24a).
However, Beekes argues that according to 6th century encyclopedist Stephanus of Byzantium the mountain had an older name starting from Λ, and judging by the variation σσ/σ it may be Lua error in Module:parameters at line 290: Parameter 1 should be a valid language, etymology language or family code; the value "pregrc" is not valid. See WT:LOL, WT:LOL/E and WT:LOF..
