Κάστνιον, ὄρος ἐν Ἀσπένδῳ τῆς Παμφυλίας. τὸ ἐθνικὸν Κάστνιος καὶ Κάστνιον, ἐξ οὗ καὶ Καστνιήτης. ἔδει δὲ Καστνιώτης ὡς Πηλιώτης.
Kastnion: a mountain in Aspendos of Pamphylia. The ethnic (gentilic) is Kastnios and Kastnion, from which also Kastniētēs. But it ought to be Kastniōtēs, as (one says) Pēliōtēs.
