ωψ or οψ (pronounced "ops") in ancient Greek has also the meaning of the looking of a face (όψις (opsis)) and also the meaning of the "eye". So the meaning of "Anti-ope" is "she who looks at the other (opposite) side" or "she who her face is not shown because she has her face turned to the other (opposite) side".
