See ἶλιγξ on Wiktionary

Noun [Ancient Greek]

IPA: /îː.liŋks/, /ˈi.liŋks/, /ˈi.liŋks/, /îː.liŋks/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /ˈi.liŋks/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /ˈi.liŋks/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /ˈi.liŋks/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /ˈi.liŋks/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: Formation like θῶμιγξ (thôminx) and ὄστλιγξ (óstlinx). The word is either directly from είλέω (eíléō, “to turn, wind”) or via an unknown noun. On account of the suffix, one could separate the word from εἰλέω (eiléō) as Pre-Greek.
