Root: bhidh-
English meaning: vessel, cauldron
German meaning: `Topf, Kübel, Faß'
Material: gr. πίθος n. `Faß, Weinfaß', πιθάκνη, att. φιδάκνη ds., lat. fidēlia (*fides-liā) `irdenes Gefäß, Topf'; vermutlich aisl. biða f. `Milchkübel', norw. bide n. `Butterfaß' (*bidjan-), bidne n. Gefäß.

    Da aus lat. fiscus `geflochtener Korh; Geldkorb, Kasse', fiscina `geflochtener Korb' (aus *bhidh-sko-) für unsere Sippe eine Grundbed. `geflochtenes Gefäß' erschlossen werden darf, gehört sie wohl zu einer Wz. bheidh- `binden, flechten'.
