Here we have Apollo as Appaliunas one of the three witness gods of
Wilusa. Wilusa is most likely Ilios who's chief god was Apollo as
well. Phoebus also often includes the epithet Argurótoxos, of the
silver bow, a reference to the lunar crescent. I'm wondering if
Appaliunas could be Appa (father) liuna-s (moon). Isn't appa
Tyrrhenian and atta Luwian for father?
Additional thoughts?[PCR]I favor a connection of liuna-s with 'lion'.For more information, if interested, see
