Κεβρηνία, χώρα τῆς Τρῳάδος, ἀπὸ Κεβριόνου τοῦ Πριάμου. Δίδυμος δὲ Κεβρῆνα τὴν πόλιν φησίν. Ἡρωδιανὸς δὲ ἀπὸ Κεβρῆνος ποταμοῦ. ὁ οἰκήτωρ Κεβρηνός καὶ Κεβρηνεύς καὶ Κεβρήνιος.

Kebrēnía: a district of the Troad, named from Kebriōnos, son of Priam. Didymos (p. 181 Schmidt, though the fragment is lacking) says that Kebrēna is the city. Herodian, however, derives it from the river Kebrēnos. The inhabitant is called Kebrēnos, also Kebrin(e)us, and Kebryn(i)os.
