Is Skeat a dictionary?
Well, Walter Skeat was a philologist, but his name is associated with two etymological dictionaries of English (still in print, I believe) published by Oxford UP. (I have a copy of the shorter one that I found for a couple of bucks at a flea market.) They're old, but nice. Today Aryan would be replaced with PIE (Proto-Indo-European). Here's what the 1911 <em>Encyclopaedia Britannica</em> had to say about Skeat:
