This...
"...quod autem addit pro similitudine de Amaco, non asserit Hieronimus ?er hoc quod sit lignum, sed ligno simile."
From my previous post:
ἀμίαντος/ἀμίαντον (amiantos/amianton) - clean, pure, unpolluted, undefiled
ἀμίαντος λίθος (amiantos lithos (stone/mineral)) asbestos (Aristotle, Pliny)
.
Thus, the first amianton could be used in the sense of undefiled in a prayer or concluding statement one would say after blessing/spiritually cleansing/consecrating a home:
Διατήρησον είς αιώνα αμίαντου τόνδε τον προσφάτως κεκαθαρισμένον οίκον.
Keep forever pure/undefiled this recently cleansed/purified/blessed home.
---
Thus "anchiton ola" - oil that has been blessed or is purified or is "virgin"* and...
anchiton ola dabas/dabat multos te te cere portas (blessed oil (or virgin oil) gave much to him to carry)
*"virgin" oil is oil from the first pressing, high quality light-colored oil that doesn't have a lot of sediment.

Thank you! I had missed that, as well as Anton's post about Anchiton in the earliest printed Glossa Ordinaria (1481):

I'm confused how they get to the n sound.

name Anchisaurus comes from the Greek αγχι/agkhi anchi-; "near, close" + Greek σαυρος/sauros; "lizard".
The gamma takes a 'ng' sound in this context.
I found that quite rare Greek "antiketon" means "invincible". While I'm not sure whether it is supposed to be incorrect spelling of "aniketon" or it is a synonym of this word with an accidentally similar spelling, let say, meaning "antifused".
