Κύμη

Kyme: a city in Aiolis opposite Lesbos, named after Kyme the Amazon. It used to be called Amazoneion; the ethnonym is 'Kymaios'. From here came Ephoros the historian and Hesiod, 'Kymaioi'. There is also another, called Phrikonitis. This city and Lesbos are mocked for stupidity. There is also another in Italy; its ethnonym is 'Kymeus'. A fourth is in Eleia; a fifth in Euboia; a sixth in Pamphylia. [There is also an island near Sicily.]
