afl�l�, -iKOC; [m.] 'spouted vessel' (Ath. ll, 480d), also 'alembic' (Zos. Alch.). <I ?�
• VAR Also afl�LKOe; m. (Posid.). .
.E:rYM Explained as '<pO�[XELAOe; KUAL�' and de; 6�u CtvllYfl£vll (Ath. ll, 480d); see
Dlehl on Semon. fr. 24. Statements about these words in the handbooks are unclear.
The suffix is no doubt a substrate element, as it is in KUAL�. It is often connected with
� afl�ll' � afl�wv, but correctly so? Chantraine 1933: 376 calls these words Semitic, but
without references. Derivation from Ctvo.�o.[vw seems most improbable.
