तिलकोचवक (tilakocavaka)

 
Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid
English
tilakocavaka, nt., a kind of arrowhead: Mvy 〔6099〕 (in a list of weapons)
acc. to Tib. (mde ḥu zur bzhi pa) and Jap., an arrowhead with four edges or blades
Chin. arrowhead with four layers (?). I see no etymology for the word
Skt. tila plus BHS kocavaka, q.v., seems to make no sense.
