"πλάστιγξ" meaning in Ancient Greek

See πλάστιγξ in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /plás.tiŋks/, /ˈplas.tiŋks/, /ˈplas.tiŋks/, /plás.tiŋks/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /ˈplas.tiŋks/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /ˈplas.tiŋks/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /ˈplas.tiŋks/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /ˈplas.tiŋks/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: The etymological base of the word is not clear. Formally, there is no reason to disconnect the word from πλάσσω (plássō, “to knead, mold”), but this linkage is not evident on the semantic side. The same holds true for the connection with πλατύς (platús, “flat”). In view of the suffix -ιγγ-, it therefore seems better to assume a Pre-Greek origin.
