"θόλος" meaning in Ancient Greek

See θόλος in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /tʰó.los/, /ˈθo.los/, /ˈθo.los/, /tʰó.los/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /ˈtʰo.los/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /ˈθo.los/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /ˈθo.los/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /ˈθo.los/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: Unknown. According to Beekes, the comparison with Proto-Germanic *dalą (“valley”) and Proto-Slavic *dȏlъ (“valley”) should be discarded. The connection with θάλαμος (thálamos, “bedroom”) makes more sense and would lead to a Pre-Greek origin. A few scholars, such as Guus Kroonen, still maintain the Indo-European etymology and reconstruct Proto-Indo-European *dʰól(h₂)os.
