Introduction
Proto-Indo-European *h₂ew: "away from, since, again" cannot be formally tied to *h₂epó: "off, away", but the similarity is suggestive. Perhaps Pre-Proto-Indo-European *b became either *p (by fortition) or *w (by lenition) in almost all cases, accounting for the paucity of *b in PIE.
In any case, the later (re?)-merger of the two etymons in Italic and Celtic convinced me to present them together.
Proto-Indo-European *h₂éwh₂os: "maternal grandfather, maternal uncle" similarly merges with *h₂ew: "from" in the Irish ó/ua, and has plausible semantic relationship, so I've included that also even though I don't have an explanation for where the *-h₂os came from.
The root *h₂ews-: "sunrise" is probably also connected, especially in light of *h₂éwgeh₂: "sunrise, dawn"
