"θύσθλα" meaning in Ancient Greek

See θύσθλα in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /tʰýs.tʰla/, /ˈθys.θla/, /ˈθis.θla/, /tʰýs.tʰla/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /ˈtʰys.tʰla/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /ˈθys.θla/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /ˈθys.θla/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /ˈθis.θla/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: Traditionally derived from θύω (thúō, “to sacrifice”) by means of a suffix -θλο-. However, Beekes claims this derivation is inadequate, and argues it is a loan, either from Anatolian or from Pre-Greek. Hardly related to θύρσος (thúrsos, “staff carried by Bacchus”).
