Gaia

Ancient Gods of the Underworld were almost always actual Geographical Features in the Underworld.

The God Gaia is simply the Lower Delta of Mauritania and Senegambia.

Some of the place names regions of Gaia hear on Earth surface are named after the parts of the less "godly" human head!

The Brain of Gaia: The Aoukar Basin

The Brainstem of Gaia: The Benjamin Mountains

The "brainstem" of Gaia is the Benjamin Mountains from the Old Testament and Arabic Maps of Mauritania and Lower AEthiopia and Lower AEgypt before Islamists in ~800 AD systematically purged West African Semitic History from the surface of Earth. So they thought!

Benjamin or Ben Jamin means Ben Jamin or Sons of Yamin or Sons of Yahweh.

The Benjamin Mountain of Mauritania were named for over 3300 years be Hebrews of Lower AEgypt and Is-Ra-El (Mauritania)!

The "brainstem" of Gaia is the Benjamin Mountains

The Jaw of Gaia: γνάθος (gnắthos)

Etymology
Probably from Proto-Indo-European *ǵn̥h₂dʰ-os, from a root *ǵneh₂dʰ- related to *ǵénu- (“jaw, cheek, chin”), despite (as Beekes objects) not yielding *γνᾱθος (*gnāthos) as may be expected. Cognate with Lithuanian žándas (“cheek”) and English chin.

Noun
γνᾰ́θος • (gnắthos) f (genitive γνᾰ́θου); second declension

jaw

Alternative forms

Etymology
Unknown. The traditional derivation from a Proto-Indo-European *gʰel- (“to shout”), and subsequent comparison with Old Norse gjǫlnar (“mustache, bearded lips”) and Old Armenian ձեղուն (jełun, “ceiling, palate”), is unconvincing. See also χελώνη (khelṓnē, “tortoise”), which is often associated, though probably not related, with the word.[1]

Ear of Gaia λαιμός

Alternative forms
αυτί (aftí) (spelling from alternative etymology)
Etymology
Back-formation from the plural αφτιά (aftiá), extracted from article & noun τ’ αφτιά (t’ aftiá, “the ears”), from Byzantine Greek τά ἀφτία (tá aphtía) (singular τό ἀφτίον (tó aphtíon)), from Koine Greek τά ὠτία (tá ōtía) (singular ὠτίον (ōtíon)), diminutive of Ancient Greek τᾰ̀ ὦτᾰ (tằ ôtă) (singular οὖς (oûs)), through a regular phonological development of

/ta.uˈti.a/ → (*/tavˈti.a/) → /tafˈti.a/ and αφτιά (aftiá) /aˈftça/, singular αφτί (aftí) /aˈfti/.
Ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *h₂ṓws.

Etymology according to Georgios Hatzidakis, accepted by Babiniotis.[1] Other linguists[2] support the spelling αυτί (aftí) from τ’ αυτιά (t’ aftiá) through /tawˈti.a/ - /tafˈti.a/. Similar case is the spelling of αβγό (avgó) or αυγό (avgó, “egg”).

Eye of Gaia : ὀφθαλμός

Etymology
Traditionally derived from ὄψ (óps, “eye”) +‎ θάλαμος (thálamos, “chamber”), but note the usual ancient Greek word for eye is the similar ὤψ (ṓps), with a long /o/.

Based on irregular κτ : πτ : φθ variation seen in variants like ὄκταλλος (óktallos) and ὀπτίλλος (optíllos), as well as the suffix -αλλ- (-all-) seen in ὄκταλλος (óktallos) being difficult to explain in Indo-European terms, Beekes takes the word to be of Pre-Greek origin, with proto-form *okʷt-alʸ-m-. The hypothetical Pre-Greek form's similarity to the Proto-Indo-European equivalent *h₃ókʷs (“eye”) is coincidental, according to Beekes; he additionally notes the contrast with the Homeric gloss ὄκκον (ókkon) given to ὀφθαλμόν (ophthalmón), the former which may be from the Indo-European root.[1]

Alternatively, Watkins derives it from Proto-Indo-European *h₃ókʷs by taboo deformation to avoid the evil eye.[2]

Temple of Gaia : κρόταφος

Alternative forms
κόρταφος (kórtaphos), κότραφος (kótraphos)
Etymology
Unclear. Usually derived from κρότος (krótos, “beating”), as "beating of the veins in the temples", while Furnée instead connects it with κόρση (kórsē, “temple”), as well as, more distantly, κρόσσαι (króssai, “steps of pyramid”). However, the function of the final -ᾰφος (-ăphos) is obscure regardless, and possibly speaks to a Pre-Greek origin.[1]

κρότᾰφος • (krótăphos) m (genitive κροτάφου); second declension
