"ῥυκάνη" meaning in Ancient Greek

See ῥυκάνη in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /r̥y.ká.nɛː/, /ryˈka.ni/, /riˈka.ni/, /r̥y.ká.nɛː/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /ryˈka.ne̝/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /ryˈka.ni/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /ryˈka.ni/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /riˈka.ni/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: The formation is similar to σκαπάνη (skapánē), δρεπάνη (drepánē) and other instrument names, but the root is unknown. The word has been connected to Sanskrit स्रुच् (sruc, “sort of large wooden ladle”), but this fails to account for the meaning. A Pre-Greek origin is certainly a possibility for this word.
