[edit]Etymology
[edit]Ultimate origin is unknown. Formation like δέπαστρον (dépastron) and κάναστρον (kánastron). The suffix is Pre-Greek.
Some authors argue that this is possibly a Mediterranean Wanderwort, and relate it with Sardinian golosti, colostri (“holly”) and Basque gorosti (“holly”).[1] See those for more.
