Galen recognizes two varieties of apricots, the 

 TrpcKOKKia and the 'AppeviaKa priXa. He remarks fur- 

 ther that the purists of his time avoided the term 

 npeKoKKia altogether. Galen. VI, 348 A. XIII, 

 209 C, in both places written TrpeKoKKiov. 



[As the apricot was carried from Armenia to Italy 

 and Greece, we may suppose that its Armenian 

 name went along with it. Now pTp"lD, barkuk, 

 in Persian means apricot. And it is not absurd 

 to assume that the ancient Armenian word contained 

 the same elementary sounds (brqwq). This being 

 admitted, as the apricot ripens before the peach 

 (with which it must have been confounded at first 

 by the Europeans), it was natural for the Eomans to 

 connect its Armenian name with their praecox, 

 the root of which is peaecoc. The Byzantine 

 Greeks converted upeKoKKwv (or perhaps the original 

 Armenian name) into ^epUoKKov, which see. 



In the Arabic of the present day, plp^^i bar- 

 kuk, means plum, Prumis Domestica ; ll'OC'O. 

 m i s h m i s h , being the word for apricot. See 

 also iapToKov, in the Appendix.]
