"Hemp" in Armenian

kwizzikal · Jan 11, 2007, 17:24

Greetings Armenoforumers.

Is there a proper Indo-European word for "hemp" in Armenian? And, if so, what is the earliest occurrence in classical Armenian sources?

I know it's everybody's favorite plant nowadays, but I'm writing a paper on Indo-European plant and plant product names. My ancient machine has a lot of font problems, so I'd appreciate any answer in Roman script.

Thanks in advance.

hemp in Armenian was also called djout (pronounced jute). There is also an Armenian word hanpa used by the armenians in turkey ...
