Classical Attic uses hHLIKIWTHS for a co-eval, one of one's own generation;
there are also SUNHLIKIWTHS, which apparently is equivalent to the
preceding, in later Greek, and hOMHLIX, which appears to be primarily a
poetic adjective meaning the same thing.

Well, that's certainly not true of the above words; the likelihood of such
a connection really eludes me. I do find that SULLATREUW is used by
Plutarch (2.941e) in the sense "serve together"--which could be a matter of
simple service to a master or conceivably worship of a deity--but that
doesn't need to imply also that the SULLATREUONTES are hHLIKIWTAI.
