2-scythian-deities-tabiti-tamimasadas-Turkic-roots

 

Tabiti or Tapati, a Scythian goddess. 

The western scholars think that the root must be Indo European:

wiki: ...


and was related to the Avestan term tāpaiieⁱti (𐬙𐬁𐬞𐬀𐬌𐬌𐬈𐬌𐬙𐬌‎) meaning "to warm," Latin tepeo and several other Indo-European terms for heat, as well as to the similar name of the Hindu goddess Tapatī (तपती) and to the verb related to the latter's name, tapayati (तापयति), meaning "burns" and "is hot."[10] and to the Sanskrit term tápas (तपस्), which denoted the cosmic warmth and the original nature, that is the cosmic principle out of which originated the multiple elements of the Universe and the order in the world....

There is a Turkic root tap meaning simply "to worship, to wish and to pray".


Could it be related to it, too?

the 2nd one Thamimasades

There is a PTurk.root  *Tạm- meaning 1 to burn (tr.) 2 to kindle 3 to become excited.

-mas/-maz: suffix for "not" Ata: the father

It could be related to Tabiti in this sense. Did Herodotus muddle up these two deities?
