Zeus-Ombrios-Raingiver-Rainbringer |
Ombrios - The Raingiver / The Rainbringer is one of many epithets (surnames) of Zeus.
Ombrios has to do with ombros meaning rain. This possible 'Pre-Greek' name has no convincing etymology.
And now my part: It could have a very great similarity to Proto Turkic root yag- meaning to rain, to pour.
Rain itself has the names like yağmur, yambur, yāmur, yamgur...
Similar?
Similar...
look at Proto Turkic RAIN
And look at the etymology of Ombros by wiktionary.
Nothing whole and nothing half.
