The participle ἐττημένα (Pherecr., fr. 243 K.‑A.) has not been correctly assigned to any verb in the Greek Lexica so far. In this paper the question is faced taking into account 1) the other words of the family, their sources, and their textual problems, 2) the Indo-European etymology of the verb, and 3) its phonetic evolution in Greek. If, as it seems very likely, the verb comes from IE *ky(e)H2‑ (according to the etymology put forward by Puhvel), ἐττημένα should be assigned to the present τάω, Attic equivalent to Ionic σάω, known through Philoxenus and the Etymologica, which follow the former on this point
