  thank Uri for his explanation by Hebrew. I also tried Hebrew, but I  
could
find only s'e:3a:r meaning 'hair'.
We can't do etymological study without referring to other Semitic  
languages.
To reinforce a hypothesis, we should check the words of this root in
other Semitic languages such as Assyrian, Babylonian, Aramaic and  
Syrian.
Unfortunately I couldn't find any dictionary of these languages in my
university. So I'll expect contribution of the specialists of these
languages.
