520 | |a Abstract This paper argues that the second member of the Avestan compounded personal name Spitiiura - goes back to the Indo-Iranian word for ‘lamb’: Ved. úran -, Mod. Pers. barra . The name ‘having shining white lambs’ can be shown to have mythopoetic parallels in other Indo-European traditions. It is argued that the expected second member *- u̯r̥h 1 n-ó - formed from simplex * u̯r̥h 1 en - with a thematic suffix was analogically remodeled as *- u̯r̥h 1 -ó - in pre-Indo-Iranian times: the model was provided by second members of compounds made from n -stems which lost the nasal due to the so-called “ ašnō -rule”, e.g. Ved. víparva - made from * péru̯on - or YAv. ka-mərəda - made from * ml̥h 3 d h on- . Similar analogical remodeling is found in Ved. aṣṭavr̥ṣá - from vr̥ṣán - and many other cases. The compound further underwent a laryngeal loss by the so-called “νεογνός-rule” (cf. Ved. tuvigrá - ‘swallowing much’ < *- g w r̥h 3 -ó -) and the resulting sequence *- u̯r̥o - was resyllabified as *- uro -. Therefore, Av. º ura - can represent a “compositional form” of PIE * u̯r̥h 1 en - ‘lamb’ and Bartholomae’s analysis of Spitiiura - as ‘having shining white lambs’ may still carry the day. | ||
