Is it known the etymology of ENYALIOS, one of the epithets of Greek god Ares?
The Mycenean form was e-nu-wa-ri-jo (*Enuwaliyos)
 
- Mycenean -u-wa- is ever <*u-wa- or can be also <*u-ha- ?
- Mycenean -i-jo- is ever <*i-yo- or can be also <*i-ho- ?
 
The suffix in Enyalios is probably the same in Deukalion, Daidalos, Thessalos/Phettalos, Mainalos, Kastalia, etc.
 
Is this a reflex of PIE suffix *-lo-, or it has a non-IE origin *-al- (akin to Latin -a:lis, regalis, moralis, perhaps)
