antholiten.

Brit.

/ˈanθəlʌɪt/, U.S.

/ˈænθəˌlaɪt/

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: antho- comb. form, -lite comb. form¹.

Etymology: < antho- comb. form + -lite comb. form¹. In sense 1 as an alteration of anthophyllite n. (see note). In sense 2 after scientific Latin Antholithes (A. Brongniart 1822, in Mémoires du Muséum d'hist. nat. (1822) 239; compare French antholithe on page 238 of the same source), probably a specific use of Antholithus (1768 in Linnaeus).Sense 1 apparently arose from a misapprehension by Weston (see quot. 1806 at sense 1) of German Nelke clove (Middle High German neilke ), clove-gillyflower (15th cent.) as referring to the flower rather than to the spice; Schumacher, the coiner of the etymon of anthophyllite n. (see discussion at that entry), calls the mineral ‘von nelkenbrauner Farbe’, i.e. ‘having a clove-brown colour’. German Nelke is < Middle Low German nēgelken clove, lit. ‘little nail’ < nāgel nail n. + -ken -kin suffix; for the semantic motivation of the name of the spice, see discussion at clove n.²

1. Mineralogy. A mineral of the amphibole group; spec. = anthophyllite n. rare. Now historical.

1847 J. Craig New Universal Dict. Antholite.., a name given by Brongniart to certain fossil plants, found in the coal formation, which have the appearance of inflorescence.

1857 C. Lyell Suppl. Man. Elem. Geol. (ed. 2) 31 Mr. Charles Bunbury called my attention lately to an antholite in his collection from the Newcastle coal-field, which he compared to Antholyza, an Irideous genus.

1872 Geol. Mag. 9 53 Göppert, in his Permian Flora, figures an Antholite..which he considers to be the inflorescence of Nöggerathia, a genus placed by him among the monocotyledons.
