Μυγδονία, μοῖρα Μακεδονίας. καὶ ἑτέρα Φρυγίας τῆς μεγάλης. ἀπὸ Μυγδόνος. τινὲς δὲ Μαιδοὺς αὐτούς φασι. τὸ κτητικὸν Μυγδονικός καὶ θηλυκῶς καὶ οὐδετέρως. λέγεται καὶ Μυγδόνιος καὶ Μυγδονία. ἐλέγετο καὶ Μυχθονία.
Mygdonia: a district of Macedonia; and there is another (Mygdonia) in Greater Phrygia, named from Mygdon. But some say that they are Mae(d)oi. The possessive adjective is Mygdonikos, both in the feminine and the neuter; one also says Mygdonios and Mygdonia. It was also called Mychthonia.
