Kymē: a city of Aiolis, opposite Lesbos, named from Kymē the Amazon. It was also called Amazonion. The ethnic (gentilic) is Kymaios. From here were Ephoros the historian and Hesiodos, (both) Kymaioi. There is also another (Kymē), called Phrikōnitis. This one, and Lesbos as well, is mocked for dull-wittedness. And there is also another in Italy; its ethnic is Kymeus. A fourth (is) in Elis; a fifth in Euboia; a sixth in Pamphylia. There is also an island near Sicily.
