νέπετος [?] = καλαμίνθη (Gal.). «Ραΐ» ‘eVAR Cf. νέπιτα' ἡ καλαμίνθη (H.). *ETYM According to André 1956 s.v., νέπιτα was taken from Lat. nepeta. Fur. 357 is probably right in considering the origin of the Latin word to be a Greek pre-form *veTteta. Such a form points to Pre-Greek origin. — [Beekes, s.v. νέπετος, p. 1061]
