Lapwing

The name of an unclean bird, mentioned only in Lev. 11:19 and Deut. 14:18. The Hebrew name of this bird, dukiphath, has been generally regarded as denoting the hoope (Upupa epops), an onomatopoetic word derived from the cry of the bird, which resembles the word "hoop;" a bird not uncommon in Palestine. Others identify it with the English peewit.

A Biblical and Theological Dictionary

LAPWING

דוכיפת, Levit. xi, 19; Deut. xiv, 18. The bird intended by the Hebrew name in these places is undoubtedly the _hoopoe_; a very beautiful, but most unclean and filthy, species of birds. The Septuagint renders it ἔποπα; and the Vulgate, _upupa_; which is the same with the Arabian interpreters. The Egyptian name of the bird is _kukuphah_; and the Syrian, _kikuphah_; which approach the Hebrew _dukiphath_. It may have its name from the noise or cry it makes, which is very remarkable, and may be heard a great way.
