The quest for Anchiton

[Searcher]

I always thought that "an-" looks oddly in the word. So, it is or distorted or "anchi-" is a root. If it is a root of the word, it  must mean something related to hook(s) as in "anchor". In this case, it seems to have no sense. If it is a prefix (a-, an-), there, possibly, a vowel after it was lost (for example, anichiton or anikiton - invincible). But if it is really from Hebrew or Aramaic, or Arabic sources, where "cheton" (or "kheton", etc.) means "flax"  or "linen", "an-" may mean something else.
There is an example of "akheton" - a kind of armor.
