Abstract
Purpose. To determine the origin of the name clover in Ukrainian and international scientific Latin and other languages on the basis of historical linguistics, folk etymology, to establish the role of this crop in the development of agriculture and civilization in early times of human history, as well as to establish how the ancestors of Ukrainians, the ancient Oriyas, knew that through the plant all natural forces are accumulated in it and the soil, which are the environmental factors that affect their growth and development. Methods. Linguistic, scientific and historical, visual, scientific hypothesis and abstraction. Results. The scientifically substantiated definition of the origin of the name of important high-protein feed crop, specifically clover of different varieties, which constitute the feed and ecological framework of agricultural landscapes is given. The introduction of the crop into the three-field crop rotation made it possible to preserve soil fertility and increase the productivity of fields in 3-4 times during the ancient historical Oriya period of European civilization created by the ancient ancestors of Ukrainians 8-12 thousand years ago. Conclusions. On the basis of scientific, historical, and linguistic analysis, the etymology and origin of the botanical scientific name of an important high-protein feed crop – clover – was determined. Its Latin name – Trifolium; Ukrainian scientific name – clover; Ukrainian folk ones – konotop, komanytsia, knyushina, orishina, christening periwinkle; Polish – koniczyna; Czech – jetel; Slovak – dateline; English – clover, trefoil; Romanian – trifol; German – klee; Russian – clover. In Ireland trifilium – white creeping clover (repens) is a Christian symbol of the Holy Trinity.
