From Proto-Hellenic *tʰehós (whence also Mycenaean Greek 𐀳𐀃 (te-o)), a thematicization of amphikinetic Proto-Indo-European *dʰéh₁-s-(s) ~ *dʰh₁-s-és, from *dʰeh₁- (“to do, to put, to place”) + *-s (s-stem forming suffix). Cognate with Phrygian δεως (“to the gods”), Old Armenian դիք (dikʻ, “gods”) and Latin fēria (“festival day”), fānum (“temple”) and fēstus (“festive”).
