Tarra: a city in Lydia. [Leukios the grammarian was from it.] Another is in Crete, where Apollo Tarraios is honoured. There is also another city named Tarra by the Caucasus, a settlement of Cretans. Loukios was from Tarra, the Cretan city; his three excellent books on proverbs, his works on letters, and his most polished technical treatises are extant. The feminine form for the territory is 'Tarraia'.
