Talk:Ἄρτεμις

Older or suspect etymological theories from Wikipedia
Moved from the entry, because they seem outdated:
 * "In the 17- and 1800s, suggested the name was also found in Phrygian as Artemas, which  suggested derived from an Iranian root *arta ("great"), "

... but Artemas is more likely a simple derivation (via Artemidoros, "gift of Artemis") of Artemis.
 * "In the 1800s, Anton Goebel suggested "the root στρατ or ῥατ, "to shake", and makes Artemis mean the thrower of the dart or the shooter".
 * "Another suggestion relates the name to and the goddess to wider bear-worship in early Europe / the Mediterrannean, and connect her to the Cretan ."
