Name of a mountain.

Greek original · Adler’s text

Τίρυνθος· ὄνομα ὄρους.

Betacode

*ti/runqos: o)/noma o)/rous.

Notes

Not independently attested as such. The present headword is in fact the genitive case of Tiryns, an ancient (and un-mountainous) city in the NE Peloponnese, and the entry was perhaps generated by its mention in upsilon 108.
Adler reports a comparable entry in the Ambrosian Lexicon.
