Reconstruction:Proto-Slavic/čьbanъ

• *čьvanъ

Unclear:

• Vasmer, Trubačev relate it to Lithuanian ki̇̀biras (“bucket”), Latvian ciba (“small keg for milk”), which have been compared with Ancient Greek κίβος (kíbos, “chest”);
• Mladenov alternatively draws comparison with Ancient Greek κύμβη (kúmbē), Latin cumba, German Humpen, Sanskrit कुम्भ (kumbhá), Avestan 𐬑𐬎𐬨𐬠𐬀 (xumba) which are more often associated with similarly unclear Proto-Slavic *kubъ / *kǫbъ.
