Old Armenian

Etymology

The origin is disputed. The stem of the word is հայո- (hayo-), as evidenced by the o-type declension.

According to Diakonoff, the ethnonym derives from Proto-Armenian *hatiyos, *hatyos, from Urartian 𒆳𒄩𒀀𒋼 (KURḫa-a-te /Ḫāti, Hate/, the land of Hittites); compare Hittite 𒄩𒋾 (ḫa-ti /Ḫatti/). This name was given by Urartians to all lands west of the Euphrates, including the territory around Malatya occupied by Proto-Armenians. When the Urartians were assimilated among the Proto-Armenians, they took over their Indo-European language and called themselves by the same name of the “Hittites”.[1]

On the other hand, Martirosyan connects հայ (hay) with the country name Hayaša- and derives both from Proto-Indo-European *h₂éyos (metal). He explains Hayaša- as “the land of metal or iron” and հայ (hay) as “inhabitant of the land of metal or iron”. Hayasa, located on the north-western corner of historical Armenia, was famous for metalworking.[2] The connection with Hayasa is repudiated by Kitazumi, pointing out that the Hittite word is attested over twenty times and written in such ways that it can only be read Ḫayaša- but with the sound inventory of Old Armenian an anlauting խ- (x-) would represent a better fit.[3]

An old proposal derives the word from Proto-Indo-European *pótis (lord, master), but a Proto-Indo-European *po- would yield Old Armenian ո- (o-): compare ոտն (otn).

Armenian tradition connects the word with the nation's legendary eponym Հայկ (Hayk).

For the other names of the Armenians see Old Persian 𐎠𐎼𐎷𐎡𐎴 (a-r-mi-i-n /Armina/), Old Georgian სომეხი (somexi) and Northern Kurdish file.
