κρίτανος

Etymology
. Only attested as a gloss in Hesychius. Cognate with 🇨🇬.

This word is glossed with, which is usually interpreted as meaning 'terebinth', a kind of tree, but this identification may be questioned. Hescyhius himself states of τέρμινθος that it is a 'plant resembling flax, from which the Athenians weave their nets'. This equation with 'flax' would yield potentional Semitic cognates for κρίτανος, like 🇨🇬 and 🇨🇬.
