"σκάλοψ" meaning in Ancient Greek

See σκάλοψ in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ská.lops/, /ˈska.lops/, /ˈska.lops/, /ská.lops/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /ˈska.lops/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /ˈska.lops/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /ˈska.lops/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /ˈska.lops/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: Traditionally derived from σκάλλω (skállō, “to stir up, hoe”). However, Beekes suggests a Pre-Greek origin in view of the suffix common to other animal names, such as δρύοψ (drúops), κόρνοψ (kórnops), κώνωψ (kṓnōps) and πάρνοψ (párnops).
