"λυγγούριον" meaning in Ancient Greek

See λυγγούριον in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /lyŋ.ɡǔː.ri.on/, /lyŋˈɡu.ri.on/, /liŋˈɡu.ri.on/, /lyŋ.ɡǔː.ri.on/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /lyŋˈɡu.ri.on/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /lyŋˈɡu.ri.on/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /lyŋˈɡu.ri.on/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /liŋˈɡu.ri.on/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: Traditionally derived from λύγξ (lúnx, “lynx”) + οὖρον (oûron, “urine”), as the stone was thought to be the urine of the lynx. However, the presence of the word λογούριον (logoúrion, “glass”) rather shows that this is a Pre-Greek word.
