It would be interesting to see if the English word 'fox' could be
related to the Slavic volk/vuk (wolf)?
The other way round: both English fox and Slavik vuk may be
derivatives of Late Magdalenian DhAG for good in the sense
of able, wherefrom English fox German Fuchs, German Dachs,
English Dachshund, also English dog, and Slavik vuk for wolf.
DhAG is also present in the name of the supreme Celtic god
Dagda, which means the good god in the sense of the able
god. I postulate the permuation group of GADh for good
for Göbekli Tepe in southeast Anatolia, 11 600 till 9500 BC,
from where it spread in all directions. In Goebekli Tepe,
the fox, appearing on the pair of central stone pillars of one
of the at least nineteen stone pillar temples, had the role of
guiding the soul of a deceased ruler through the Underworld
back to the earth, wherefrom it may rise to a heavenly abode.
In Egypt, the shakal god Anubis had about the same function.
In the belief of the Iranian Zaraostrans dogs are still used for
telling whether someone has really died, or whether the soul
lingers on. Dogs, domesticated wolves, played an important
role in the life of early farmers, and they played one more
role in the passage of a human soul to the Otherworld,
therefore the role they played in mythology, and the curious
fact that in English god and dog are inverses. God is the
good one in the moral sense, dog is the good one in the
sense of the able one, as in Dagda. And able they are.
They can even smell cancer, and are now used for
diagnosing certain forms of tumors ...
