Græfa

Según el Diccionario de Inglés Antiguo:

græfe[?], an :-- Twælf fóður græfan, Chr. 852; Erl. 67, 38. Earle in his note on this word, p. 300, suggests a translation other than that given by previous editors. By them it has been translated 'coal,' he suggests 'gravel.' The word may be of Celtic origin, and so may be compared with Old French

græfa

grave, of which gravel is a diminutive. Celtic forms are Bret. grouan gravel: Corn. grow gravel, sand: W. gro pebbles. græfa
