"λύθρον" meaning in Ancient Greek

See λύθρον in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /lý.tʰron/, /ˈly.θron/, /ˈli.θron/, /lý.tʰron/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /ˈly.tʰron/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /ˈly.θron/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /ˈly.θron/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /ˈli.θron/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: From Proto-Indo-European *lewh₃- (“to wash”), the same root of λούω (loúō, “to wash”), λῦμα (lûma, “dirt”), Latin lutum (“mire, mud”) and Albanian lym (“loam, clay”). Compare Sanskrit रुधिर (rudhira, “blood, gore”), in which case the color-word being the same is coincidence.
