"σῦκον" meaning in Ancient Greek

See σῦκον in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /sŷː.kon/, /ˈsy.kon/, /ˈsi.kon/, /sŷː.kon/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /ˈsy.kon/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /ˈsy.kon/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /ˈsy.kon/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /ˈsi.kon/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: Since long, connected with Latin fīcus and Old Armenian թուզ (tʻuz), and considered a borrowing from a Mediterranean (Pre-Greek) or Anatolian substrate source, from which Hebrew שִׁקְמָה (šiqmā́, “sycamore fig”) – borrowed into συκάμινος (sukáminos) – and possibly Proto-Slavic *tyky (“gourd”) are also adduced. Martirosyan reconstructs a Mediterranean proto-form *tʰuōiḱo- or *tʰū(i)ḱo- (“fig”), Beekes suggests *tʲuk-. The use of words for fruits (fig, plum etc.) in the sense of “vulva” is very common cross-linguistically.
