Re: Gorgyra and Tartaros - g/t dialectal Pre-Greek

I still prefer *ger-g- 'turn' (Pokorny 1959: 385) for gorgyra (which
means "inferior part of a tile" as well) < *gorg-urah2/4 (same root of
gargathos) and *terh2- 'pass through' (Pokorny 1074-1075) for Tartaros
< *tr-trh2-o-s (same root of tra:n'e:s)
