κρόσσαι

Etymology
This word is a technical expression of origin.


 * Frisk's suggestion that the expression originally derives from weaving, connecting, is not likely.
 * A connection with Balto-Slavic words for "bar, rod, rafters", like 🇨🇬 and, seems rather speculative, though supported by Pokorny, who derives it from and also compares 🇨🇬.
 * Furnée connects, which is unwarranted.

Noun

 * 1) stepped copings of parapets
 * 2) courses, steps of the pyramids
