On the Etymologies of Kypros, kyparissos, kypeiron, kapparis, sappheiros, salamandra, Salmoxis, Gebeleixis et al.

Updated and excellent ninth version. So many long overdue improvements to this work, which, from all my works on Zenodo, had the most problems as far as numerous paragraphs that needed fine-tuning and some theories that weren't formulated to the level of my other works, but still this work has many etymologies which are very important, new, and certainly correct: just take a look at my new perfecting of my etymology of Kypros, the name of the island: I was right: Kypros derives from "pointed" referring to the long, pointed peninsula jutting out from the eastern end of the island, as proven by Kerastia/Kerastis, ancient alternate names for the island, which derive from Keras="horn"---see, I was right! This work is well-worth re-reading much of it or all of it, since I have added a lot of new information and greatly improved so much of this work. A number of the improvements I could have done many months ago but I had so many other papers that I was working on at the same time. This is the work that brought the world not only the first correct etymology of Kypros, but also of Salmoxis/Zalmoxis, Gebeleixis/Zebeleixis, Zibelthiurdos/Svelsurdos, Kardamon, Kardzouliek, and probably of Salamandra as well, as well as more correct new etymologies. And in the final Kwet section, I explain that the meaning "rock, stone" for Kwetra could have developed from "thunderstone", in turn from "lightning bolt" in turn from "pointed; sharp; bright": see Tocharian B "karwene" (="rock, stone") for a likely parallel example of a word for "rock, stone" likely deriving from "lightning bolt" because it was believed by many that many or all stones came down from the sky with lightning strikes. In this new version I removed the Kardamon/Kardzouliek work which will be given its own PDF soon; no change to those Kard- etymologies but I will add more to it. Till then that work can be seen in previous versions of this work.
