"cippus" meaning in Latin

See cippus in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ˈkip.pus/ [Classical], [ˈkɪpːʊs̠] [Classical], /ˈt͡ʃip.pus/ (note: modern Italianate Ecclesiastical), [ˈt͡ʃipːus] (note: modern Italianate Ecclesiastical)
Etymology: Seemingly from a Proto-Italic *keipos, likely related to Latin Scipiō, of unclear further origin. Some offer connection with Ancient Greek σκήπτω (skḗptō), from Proto-Indo-European *skāp- < *skeh₂p- (“rod, shaft, staff, club”), whence also Latin scāpus and English shaft. Others, such as De Vaan, prefer to derive the word from Proto-Indo-European *(s)ḱéypos (“pole, stick”), connecting it to Sanskrit शेप (śepa, “penis, tail”).

Some offer connection with Ancient Greek σκήπτω (skḗptō), from Proto-Indo-European *skāp- < *skeh₂p- (“rod, shaft, staff, club”), whence also Latin scāpus and English shaft. Others, such as De Vaan, prefer to derive the word from Proto-Indo-European *(s)ḱéypos (“pole, stick”), connecting it to Sanskrit शेप (śepa, “penis, tail”).",
