Ἰνάρως

Ancient Greek

Etymology

Borrowed from Demotic jr.t-ḥr-r-r⸗w (“Inaros”, literally “the Eye of Horus is against them”), ultimately from Egyptian jrt ḥr (“Eye of Horus”) + r (“concerning, against”) + .w (third-person plural suffix pronoun). Compare Coptic ⲛⲁϩⲣⲁⲩ (nahrau) from the same source.
