"σκύνιον" meaning in Ancient Greek

See σκύνιον in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ský.ni.on/, /ˈscy.ni.on/, /ˈsci.ni.on/, /ský.ni.on/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /ˈsky.ni.on/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /ˈscy.ni.on/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /ˈscy.ni.on/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /ˈsci.ni.on/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: According to Beekes, the word derives from Proto-Indo-European *(s)kewH- (“to cover”) and belongs together with Proto-Germanic *skūrō (“shelter, shack”), Latin obscūrus (“dark, obscure”), so that an r/n-stem is supposed. With a suffix -l-, there is σκύλος (skúlos, “animal's skin, hide”), σκῦλα (skûla, “spolia”). Perhaps the root is seen in Sanskrit स्कुनाति (skunāti, “he covers, protects”).
