According to Frisk, originally a present participle of a verb *κελέω (*keléō), which would be a denominative of *κέλος (*kélos, “rising up”). Formally, the latter could be compared with Proto-Slavic *čelo (“forehead”), and further connected with κολώνη (kolṓnē, “hill”), both from Proto-Indo-European *kel (“to raise, lift”). It does not belong to κελοί (keloí, “woods”). Furnée assumes a pre-form *κελέϝοντες (*keléwontes) as a variant of *κελεμος (*kelemos), which stands behind -κελεμνο- seen in ἀμφικέλεμνον (amphikélemnon, “chair carried by two men”).

κρόσσαι (plural vocative)

This word is a technical expression of unknown origin.
* Frisk's suggestion that the expression originally derives from weaving, connecting κρόκη (krókē, “woof”), is not likely.
* A connection with Balto-Slavic words for "bar, rod, rafters", like Lithuanian krake (“rod, staff”) and krēklas (“rafters”), seems rather speculative, though supported by Pokorny, who derives it from Proto-Indo-European *krek- (“post”) and also compares Proto-Celtic *krīkʷā (“furrow”).
* Furnée connects κόρση (kórsē, “temple, side of the head”), which is unwarranted.
